Sponsor's own description

This project is about implementing a pain scale, the Critical Care Pain Observation Tool (CPOT), in ICU settings at King Abdullah Medical City to evaluate its impact on nurse pain assessment and management. Pain is considered as a significant problem in ICU and the literature shows that 50% of patients in ICU suffer moderate to severe pain and up to 70% of patients experience undetected pain while in ICU. The CPOT is an evidence-based intervention to assess pain among non-verbal patients in ICU settings. A stepped-Wedge Randomised trial will be used to implement the CPOT in 8 ICU in King Abduullah Medical City. Patient chart audits and a survey of ICU nurses will be conducted post implementation.
