Tailored Pediatric Pain Management: A Multidisciplinary Approach
Received Date: Sep 01, 2025 / Published Date: Sep 29, 2025
Abstract
Effective pediatric pain management necessitates a multidisciplinary approach, integrating pharmacological and non-pharmacological strategies tailored to children’s unique needs. Accurate assessment, psychosocial considerations, and family involvement are paramount. Cognitive-behavioral techniques, play therapy, and technological advancements like VR show promise in improving coping and reducing anxiety. Pharmacotherapy requires careful drug selection, dosing, and administration to maximize efficacy and minimize risks. Management of acute and chronic pain, as well as pain in non-verbal infants, are addressed. Opioid use is managed judiciously, with a focus on alternatives. Pain education for children, parents, and providers is fundamental to enhancing outcomes and reducing fear.
