Assessing procedural pain in infants: a feasibility study evaluating a point-of-care mobile solution based on automated facial analysis.
The management of procedural pain in infants is suboptimal, in part, compounded by the scarcity of a simple, accurate, and reliable method of assessing such pain. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties of the PainChek Infant, a point-of-care mobile application that uses automated facial evaluation and analysis in the assessment of procedural pain in infants. ⋯ PainChek.
