Pain in Patients With Cystic Fibrosis in Rouen University Hospital

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
Objectif Principal - To evaluate the intensity and frequency of pain episodes in patients with cystic fibrosis followed at the cystic fibrosis center of Rouen University Hospital, Normandy, France. Objectifs secondaires To assess the relationship between pain and disease severity. To assess the relationship between pain and the age of the patient. To describe the pain locations. To describe the use of pharmacological or nonpharmacological treatment. To evaluate the procedural pain.

Detailed Description
-----------------
Patients seen for routine planned visits complete a self-administered retrospective questionnaire about pain during the last 3 months, and a prospective diary during the two weeks following the visit. Primary evaluation criteria : Intensity and frequency of pain are evaluated with the prospective diary. The pain intensity is assessed by validated scales adapted to the patient's age (scale ranging from 0 to 10). 0 to 6 years : numerical rating scale assessed by the parents. 4 to 7 years : Faces Pain Scale Revised. Children 6 years and older, adolescents and adults: numerical rating scale self-reported The pain frequency is completed twice a day (morning and evening) on the prospective pain diary. Secondary evaluation criteria The disease severity, estimated using recent forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) (best measurement of the year before bronchodilator, collected in the patient's medical record) Pain locations, pharmacological or nonpharmacological treatment and procedural pain are evaluated using the diary and the questionnaire. Demographic data and characteristics of cystic fibrosis are collected using the medical file.

Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| To evaluate the intensity and frequency of pain episodes in patients with cystic fibrosis followed at the cystic fibrosis center of Rouen University Hospital, Normandy, France | Intensity and frequency of pain are evaluated with the prospective diary. The pain intensity is assessed by validated scales adapted to the patient's age (scale ranging from 0 to 10). 0 to 6 years : numerical rating scale assessed by the parents. 4 to 7 years : Faces Pain Scale Revised. Children 6 years and older, adolescents and adults: numerical rating scale self-reported The pain frequency is completed twice a day (morning and evening) on the prospective pain diary. | 14 days | 

Secondary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| To assess the correlation between pain and disease severity | The disease severity is estimated using recent forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) (best measurement of the year before bronchodilator), collected in the patient's medical record. The correlation between pain and the disease severity will be studied with a Spearman's correlation coefficient. | 14 days | 
| To assess the correlation between pain and the age of the patient. | Age of the patient is collected using the medical file. The correlation between pain and the age will be studied with a Spearman's correlation coefficient. | 14 days | 
| To describe the pain locations. | Pain locations are evaluated using the prospective diary and the self-administered retrospective questionnaire. | 14 days | 
| To describe the use of pharmacological or nonpharmacological treatment. | The pharmacological or nonpharmacological treatments are evaluated using the prospective diary (did you take a treatment for that pain episode ?) and the self-administered retrospective questionnaire. The efficacity of the treatment is evaluated with the diary (relief or not) et the questionnaire (Likert-type rating scale : Always, often, rarely, never). | 14 days | 
| To evaluate the procedural pain. | The procedural pain and the proposed pain treatment are evaluated using the self-administered retrospective questionnaire. | 3 months |
