It is an important health problem, that causes both economic cost and suffering to people affected, because of professional care needs and utilization of the health services. Pain measurement and assessment is essential in order to provide relief to pain suffering people. As subjective experience, its assessment is complex, so many instruments have been developed aimed to measure and evaluate it. Nurses have the Nursing Outcomes Classification (NOC). This classification included six outcomes related with the assessment, measurement and evaluation of pain from different approaches (Pain level, Pain control, Pain: Adverse psychological response, Pain: Disruptive effects, Knowledge: Pain management, Client Satisfaction: Pain Management). These six Outcomes have been validated by researchers from the University of Iowa in the United States. However in Spain, the Spanish versions of theses Outcomes have not been validated properly yet, although they are a widely used tools. The principal goal of the project is: To study the psychometrics proprieties. of the six Pain-related outcomes of the NOC (5th edition) in the context of the Spanish nursing practice. The specific objectives are: \u2022 Translation and cultural adaptation to the Spanish context. \u2022 To study the reliability, validity and sensitivity to change of these outcomes in Spanish versions, when used in patients with chronic or acute pain.[\/tab] [tab position=2]This is a longitudinal, observational validation study involving a number of steps: \u2022 Translation, back-translation and Cultural adaptation. \u2022 Content validation through a panel of experts (clinician and academic) \u2022 Clinical test for the outcome \u201cPain level\u201d on population of inpatient with acute pain in the province of Jaen. \u2022 Clinical test for the outcomes \u201cPain control; Pain: Adverse psychological response; Pain: Disruptive effects\u201d in population of outpatient with chronic pain on primary care in the province of Jaen. \u2022 Clinical test for the outcomes \u201cKnowledge: Pain management; Client Satisfaction: Pain Management\u201d on population both inpatients and outpatients with chronic pain in 3 settings (hospital, primary care and chronic pain units) in the provinces Jaen and Granada.[\/tab] [tab position=3]\u00a0 As a Results of this research project we have developed Spanish versions of the 6 Pain-related Nursing Outcomes (NOC).\u00a0 They could be downloaded and used by clinicians and researchers, provided adequate citation is made. (Outcome and indicators are in Spanish).<\/p>\n
