Abstract
Previous research has shown that over 50% of adult medical-surgical patients were in pain during the past 24 hours. Nurses are the front-line caregivers in pain management yet there is not a national consensus measure of nurse-sensitive pain quality indicators. Hospitals participating in the National Database of Nursing Quality Indicators (NDNQI), a national nursing database, were recruited to participate in this research study. Pain care quality indicators were assessed in 326 U.S hospitals in 1611 nursing units; including 468 adult medical, surgical and medical-surgical combined units.
