Abstract : unrelieved pain among hospitalized children is a worldwide phenomenon that has been addressed by researchers for decades as a cause of suffering and decreased quality of life. Scientists' understanding of pain has been improved significantly in terms of its physiology and causes, accompanied with advancement in its treatment methods.

Nurses play an essential role in children's pain management process, as they provide care to them.
