Abstract:BackgroundProfessional education has been suggested to be a key barrier in the implementation and availability of treatment programs for children and adolescents with pain. The purpose of this study was to improve our understanding of the pain education of healthcare professionals working with children and adolescents with pain in Lebanon, and the current assessment and treatment practices that are used with them in Lebanon.MethodsA group of 120 experienced healthcare professionals participated. Participants had to respond to an online survey with 47 questions about pain education and organizational characteristics of their pain treatment programs.ResultsThe results of the study mainly showed that most participants (80%) reported having not received any type of related formal training. Treatment of children and adolescents with chronic pain was mostly based on medical procedures. A third of participants (34%) reported to be, at least, dissatisfied with the treatment provided in Lebanon to children and adolescents with pain.ConclusionsThe findings can now be used to improve pain education to healthcare professionals and the care given to children and adolescents with pain in Lebanon.Clinical trial numberNot applicable.
