The NRS is a valid and reliable tool for pain assessment. Although the NRS has various forms, the most commonly used one is the 11-point NRS [29]. This 11-point numerical scale ranges from 0 to 10, where 0 represents no pain, and 10 represents the worst pain imaginable.
The Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) is a simple and widely used tool for quantifying pain intensity, where patients rate their pain from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain).
The Comfort scale is a behavioural unobtrusive method of measuring distress in unconscious and ventilated infants, children and adolescence. This scale has eight indicators: alertness, calmness / agitation, respiratory response, physical movement, blood pressure, heart rate, muscle tone, facial tension.
This pain assessment tool is intended to help patient care providers assess pain according to individual patient needs. Explain and use the 0 to 10 scale for patient self-assessment. Use the faces or behavioral observations to interpret expressed pain when patient cannot communicate his/her pain intensity.
Multidimensional pain assessment tools are used to assess the many ways that pain affects a person.
