What this trial studies
This observational study aims to assess the prevalence of pain among hospitalized patients diagnosed with cirrhosis at the Dracénie hospital in Draguignan. It will evaluate various aspects of pain, including its intensity, chronicity, type, and the impact on sleep and emotional well-being. The study will recruit 30 participants over a six-month period, identifying eligible patients during their hospitalization. The findings will contribute to understanding pain management needs in this patient population.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are hospitalized patients aged 18 and over with a diagnosis of cirrhosis who can communicate in French.
Not a fit: Patients who are under legal protection, pregnant, or unable to answer questions due to cognitive reasons may not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could improve pain management strategies for cirrhotic patients, enhancing their quality of life.
How similar studies have performed: While the specific focus on pain prevalence in cirrhotic patients may be novel, similar studies have shown the importance of pain assessment in chronic conditions.
