Smartphone Evaluation of Postoperative Pain Profiles Following General Surgery in Children

Pain is common following surgery in children. Currently, no recent review of pain profiles at home has been performed on pediatric population in France following general surgery in children. The aim of this study is to evaluate the duration and severity of pain felt by children using a mobile phone application. All children operated in the different centers and leaving home will be included in the study. Children's pain scores will be measured using PPMP-SF scale (Postoperative Pain Measure for Parents Short Form). Data on prescribed and administered analgesia, nausea-vomiting, behavioral problems and parental satisfaction will be collected. The expected results are an inventory's objective observation of postoperative pain profiles at home following the different pediatric surgeries in France. The study will also highlight the different risk factors of postoperative pain (type of surgery, parental causes, reasons due to the child, medical causes).
