How nurse confidence in pain care relates to patient comfort after surgery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This study looks at how confident surgical nurses feel about managing pain and whether that affects how well patients' pain is controlled after surgery. It aims to see if better nurse confidence leads to better pain relief for patients.
