Sponsor's own description

Background: Early recognition and treatment of pain among children is important for their cognitive development and their future response to pain throughout their life. Oral sweet solutions have been accepted as effective pain reducing agents for procedures in the neonatal population. To date, there have been a limited number of published clinical trials in an emergency setting studying this type of intervention among infants undergoing venous puncture and bladder catheterization. These studies have reported conflicting results. No previous studies have evaluated the utilization of sucrose to manage pain during nasopharyngeal aspiration. Objective: To compare the efficacy of an oral sucrose solution versus placebo in reducing pain in children one to three months of age during nasopharyngeal aspiration in the Emergency Department.
