Abstract
|
|
|
The purpose of this study was to identify the accuracy rates(hit ratio) which mean the degree of concordance between pain rating scale differences over time & subjective comparisons. Subjective comparisons mean the responses to the question ¡°how does the pain you are now experiencing compare with the one at the time of the assessment yesterday ulcorner¡± Answers to this question were translated into ¡®greater¡¯, ¡®same¡¯, or ¡®less¡¯. KPRS(Korean Pain Rating Scale) was developed through 4 consecutive studies to assess pain extensively & accurately by Lee etc. VAS(Visual Analogue Scale) was reported as valid & veliable measure for the intensity of pain by many researchers. Thirty hospitalized patients with complaints of Headache were partispated in this study during the period from May 1 to July 31, 1987. In conclusion, the accuracy rates of KPRS and VAS were 60%, 67%, respectively.
