Pain is a multidimensional construct. The purpose of this cross-sectional, single-centre study was to evaluate the relationship between postpartum pain type with pain intensity and opioid use in people with and without opioid use disorder (OUD). ⋯ Postpartum pain type was associated with pain intensity and opioid use. Further research is required to address the multiple dimensions of postpartum pain in people with and without OUD to improve treatment of postpartum pain.

Review Meta Analysis
Needle-free pharmacological sedation techniques in paediatric patients for imaging procedures: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Sedation techniques and drugs are increasingly used in children undergoing imaging procedures. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we present an overview of literature concerning sedation of children aged 0-8 yr for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedures using needle-free pharmacological techniques. ⋯ We found a large variation in medication, dosage, and route of administration for needle-free sedation. Success rates for sedation techniques varied between 36% and 98%.
