BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Hospitalized newborns are often submitted to painful and stressing procedures.
Adequately measuring and evaluating pain favor its control in
this population. For such, education and training strategies are
important, emphasizing computer-based technology, which involves software, multimedia packages and network connection.
This article aimed at describing the Neonatal Pain Assessment
Program II.
CASE REPORT: The platform used to host the Neonatal Pain
Assessment Program II is the Modular Object-Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment (Moodle). The program is made
up of eight modules addressing contents regarding pain anatomy
and physiology, neonatal pain indicators, use of pain evaluation
tools, in addition to detailed explanations of four specific tools
to evaluate newborn pain. Resources such as audio presentations,
formative evaluation exercises with photos and videos, texts for
additional reading and discussion forums are also used.
CONCLUSION: Computer-based teaching may be considered
important knowledge translation facilitator. So, we believe that
this initiative, considered novel and innovative, shall favor the
use of clinical evidences in different neonatal assistance scenarios, as well as shall enhance knowledge and skills of health students and professionals with regard to neonatal pain evaluation.
