About

Maternity and neonatology, caregivers are regularly confronted with the pain of the newborn, especially after a birth injury, but it is sometimes difficult ti define.

There is not, to our knowledge, any prevalence study of pain in newborn motherhood. The data available are those of the perinatal survey 2010, with the number of operative vaginal deliveries (5.3% of suction, forceps 3.9%, 2.9% spatulas) and the number of extractions the seat (4.7%). These delivery modes can be purveyors of pain.

At St. Joseph's Hospital, there were in 2013: 259 instrumental deliveries and 90 extractions by headquarters. Fifty five paracetamol bottles were consumed in the layer sequence in 2013, and 15 in the delivery room. But this consumption is a poor reflection of the pain because treatment could be given pain-authenticated (measured with the EDIN scale), and because a bottle is discarded one month after opening.

The scales measuring pain used in the new-born at term based on the assessment of change in behavior; two specific scores of the newborn are used in France: Pain and Discomfort Scale Newborn (EDIN) for prolonged pain and Acute Pain scale Newborn (DAN) for acute pain related to health care.

The EVENDOL scale (Child Pain Evaluation) has been validated for pediatric emergencies in children 0-7 years, as well as pre-hospital, to measure the intensity of pain whether acute or prolonged (8 ). It is easy and fast to use. validation cohorts included a significant proportion of newborns. This scale appears suitable for evaluation of the newborn to term maternity
