Book excerpt: ABSTRACT Insufficient pain management continues to be problematic for hospitalized patients throughout the country. It significantly interferes with a person's quality of life making it an issue of great concern to nurses in any setting. However, nurses do not do a good job of managing pain. The purpose of this evaluation was to assess graduate nursing students' knowledge and attitudes toward pain management. Forty (n=40) graduate nursing students were asked to participate in the evaluation. All students agreed and completed the Demographic Data Form, Nurses Attitude Survey and the Pain Management and Principles Assessment. Thirty-eight females and two males participated in this study. The mean age was 35 years old (SD=9.77) with a range between 24 and 62. The majority of the participants were Non-Hispanic white (70%), followed by African American (10%), Hispanic (10%), Asian and others. The mean years of nursing experience was 10 years with a standard deviation 7.31. The data showed that nursing students demonstrated inadequate knowledge regarding pain management. The mean score on the PMPAT was 66% (SD= 3.61). The mean score on the Nurse Attitude Survey was 77 (SD=5.8) on a survey with scores that could range from 25 to 100. The higher the score the more favorable that nurse is towards pain management. The scores ranged from 69 to 91. Knowledge and attitude scores had room for improvement, suggesting that the curriculum of the college could be improved. In addition, continuing education courses could be developed to support nurses' knowledge of pain management.

Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Unmanaged pain is a widespread problem that many cancer patients face on a daily basis. Cancer pain, which can either be caused by complications due to the disease process itself or from treatment measures used, has devastating effects on the quality of life for these patients and their caregivers. This study examined the knowledge and attitudes of undergraduate students regarding pain management. The sample in this study consisted of 41 undergraduate students at the University of South Florida College of Nursing. The students sampled were predominantly white, (n=30), female (n=37), seniors (n=41) taking Leadership and Management in Nursing. After volunteering to participate, students completed the demographic data form, the nurses' attitude survey and the Pain Management Principles Assessment Tool. The mean age of students was 22.46 years, with a range from 18 to 42 years. One student indicated that he or she had a bachelor's degree in another field with the majority of students being first time college students (n=31). The results of the study showed that a mean score of 19.4 (SD= 3.0) out of a possible 31(63%) was achieved on the knowledge of the students regarding pain management while, a mean score of 17.0 (SD=2.6) out of 25 (68%) was achieved on the Nurses' Attitude Survey. The data showed that nursing students demonstrated inadequate knowledge regarding pain management, and had mixed attitudes towards pain management. However, a weak to moderate relationship between knowledge and attitudes was found (r=0.33, p=0.038) due to the fact that students lacked the fundamental knowledge, and understanding as to why they were practicing certain pain management skills. Although the sample size was relatively small and not ethnically or demographically diverse, the response from the sample was sufficient in providing statistically meaningful data for this study. The results were seen to be consistent with previous studies that show poor management of pain. The findings of this study suggest the need for the development of specific strategies to effectively teach students about pain management, as well as integrate pain management as a major component of the undergraduate-nursing curriculum to improve patient outcomes.

Book excerpt: Pain management is an aspect of patient care that all nursing professionals will encounter regardless of the specific populations that they serve. Pain affects approximately 76 million adults in the United States. In order for nursing professionals to adequately assess and manage pain they must first have an appropriate attitude in relation to pain management for patients. This study specifically addressed nursing student's attitudes twoards pain in an undergraduate baccalaureate nursing program in the Midwest. A quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional comparison study incorporated a convenience sample of 282 participants. There was a difference identified in the knowledge and attitudes of students by their level within the program (F(4,277)=15.836, p=0.0001), however the greatest differences were identified between the first and second level (the second level being where the concept of pain is taught) followed by a decline. Appropriateness of answers to question one (assessment) were found to be directly correlated accurate treatment decisions by participants in question two (intervention), both when the patient was smiling (r(280)=0.14, p

This book was released on 2018 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most people have encountered pain at some point in their lives. It is a very common complaint nurses hear from patients. When assessing patients, nurses are taught to take what the patient says as his or her pain level as fact. Pain is not a vital sign that can be measured with medical equipment like temperature or blood pressure. Therefore, many nurses find assessing pain challenging. Adding to the complexity of pain management is the current opioid crisis. To help combat some of these issues, the project leader worked with healthcare administrators at a regional teaching hospital in the southeastern United States to create pain assessment and pain management classes for nurses in the new hire nurse residency program. The purpose of the scholarly project was to measure at least 20 registered nurses’ knowledge and attitudes in a new RN graduate residency program regarding pain management. The study was conducted using a quasi-experimental approach to collect and analyze the results of the pre-test and post-test data. A modified version of the “Knowledge and Attitudes Survey Regarding Pain” (KASRP) by the City of Hope was used as the tool to collect data from the participants. There were 32 participants who completed the study. Using descriptive statistics and t-test comparison of the pre-test and post-test data, it can be concluded the educational session was beneficial to the nurses and helped improve their knowledge and attitudes about pain management. The data also supports the need to disseminate the educational sessions to all nurses within the healthcare system.
