摘要：
Paramedics have been found to under-assess and under-treat pain. Evidence suggests that this may be due to inadequate knowledge and inappropriate attitudes. Adaptation of a questionnaire measuring these attributes may allow this issue to be studied and addressed. An existing knowledge and attitudes survey regarding pain frequently utilised in the nursing literature was adapted and piloted using the cognitive interviewing method. Problematic questions were re-written and a questionnaire produced. Further validation of the tool is now required. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
