Apresentar o processo de elaboração de um pacote de medidas para manejo da dor de crianças submetidas à punção venosa pela equipe de enfermagem. Pesquisa Convergente Assistencial, do tipo antes e após intervenção, realizada com a equipe de enfermagem de uma unidade pediátrica do sul do Brasil. Elaboração de pacote de medidas com seis estratégias selecionadas pela equipe de enfermagem a serem utilizadas antes e durante a punção venosa: preparo da criança e/ou acompanhante, posicionamento da criança, distração, amamentação, solução adocicada associada ou não à sucção não nutritiva e anestésico tópico. Os participantes manifestaram satisfação quanto ao modo de elaboração do mesmo, destacando a contribuição deste para seu crescimento profissional. O pacote de medidas otimizou a adoção das estratégias para manejo da dor. A Pesquisa Convergente Assistencial alicerçada na prática baseada em evidências mostrou-se adequada, visto que propiciou a aplicação de achados científicos no cenário assistencial considerando suas particularidades.Descritores: Manejo da Dor, Criança, Cateterismo Periférico, Enfermagem Baseada em Evidências. Management of pediatric venipuncture pain: a package of measuresAbstract: To present the process of elaboration of a patient care package for pain management in children undergoing venipuncture by the nursing staff. Convergent Care Research, before and after intervention, conducted with the nursing staff of a southern pediatric unit in Brazil. Patient care packege with six strategies, selected by the nursing staff, to be used before and during venipuncture: preparation of the child and/or companion, child positioning, distraction, breastfeeding, sweet-tasting solution with or without non-nutritive suction and topical anesthetic usage. The package of measures optimized the adoption of pain management strategies, highlighting its contribution to their professional growth. The patient care bundle optimized the adoption of strategies for pain management. The Convergent Care Research grounded in evidence-based practice showed appropriate, since it allowed the application of scientific findings in the care setting, considering its peculiarities.Descriptors: Pain Management, Child, Catheterization, Peripheral, Evidence-Based Nursing. Manejo del dolor de la venopunción pediátrica: un paquete de medidasResumen: Presentar el proceso de elaboración de un paquete de medidas para manejo del dolor de niños sometidos a la venopunción por el equipo de enfermería.

IntroductionSystematic reviews collate trial data to provide evidence to support clinical decision-making. For effective synthesis, there must be consistency in outcome reporting. There is no agreed set of outcomes for reporting the effect of burn care interventions. Issues with outcome reporting have been identified, although not systematically investigated. This study gathers empirical evidence on any variation in outcome reporting and assesses the need for a core outcome set for burn care research.MethodsElectronic searches of four search engines were undertaken from January 2012 to December 2016 for randomised controlled trials (RCTs), using medical subject headings and free text terms including ‘burn’, ‘scald’ ‘thermal injury’ and ‘RCT’. Two authors independently screened papers, extracted outcomes verbatim and recorded the timing of outcome measurement. Duplicate outcomes (exact wording ± different spelling), similar outcomes (albumin in blood, serum albumin) and identical outcomes measured at different times were removed. Variation in outcome reporting was determined by assessing the number of unique outcomes reported across all included trials. Outcomes were classified into domains. Bias was reduced using five researchers and a patient working independently and together.Results147 trials were included, of which 127 (86.4%) were RCTs, 13 (8.8%) pilot studies and 7 (4.8%) RCT protocols. 1494 verbatim clinical outcomes were reported; 955 were unique. 76.8% of outcomes were measured within 6 months of injury. Commonly reported outcomes were defined differently. Numbers of unique outcomes per trial varied from one to 37 (median 9; IQR 5,13). No single outcome was reported across all studies demonstrating inconsistency of reporting. Outcomes were classified into 54 domains. Numbers of outcomes per domain ranged from 1 to 166 (median 11; IQR 3,24).ConclusionsThis review has demonstrated heterogeneity in outcome reporting in burn care research which will hinder amalgamation of study data. We recommend the development of a Core Outcome Set.PROSPERO registration numberCRD42017060908.

Since its inception in 1962, the Canadian Association of Gastroenterology (CAG) has grown from a handful of physicians into an impressive and diverse membership of almost 1000 (Figure 1). Remaining true to the philosophy of its founders, the Association is a multidisciplinary organization comprised of gastroenterologists, hepatologists, pediatricians, surgeons, radiologists, internists, clinical and basic scientists, nurses, research coordinators, residents, medical students and representatives of industry. Members share the common goals of supporting and engaging in the study of the digestive tract in health and disease, and promoting the advancement of gastroenterology by providing leadership in patient care, research, teaching and continuing professional development.
