“…19 Some of the patients received analgesics based on the NRS score, but other patients with the same NRS score did not receive any medicine. 19,20 The patients in the study by Eriksson et al 18 thought that the nurses were responsible for initiating the pain assessment, but in the study by Sjøveian and Leegaard, 24 the patients felt responsible for asking the nurses for help when they recognized changes. Some of the patients felt that it was difficult to ask for help, which can lead to the underreporting of pain.…”

“…Some of the patients felt that it was difficult to ask for help, which can lead to the underreporting of pain. 24 Although the patients received the relevant information before the surgery, they often forgot the importance of reporting post-surgery pain. 18,23 In many of the studies, the patients misunderstood the way nurses were administering the pain assessment tools, which can lead to an underestimation of the severity of acute pain.…”

“…[17][18][19] Other patients reported the severity of pain because they found it hard to select one number; for example, no pain, some pain, moderate pain, or bad pain. 17,18,20,24 The studies by van Dijk et al 20 and Pierik et al 25 showed discrepancies in how nurses defined unacceptable pain and how the patients described unacceptable pain. The patients reported a higher NRS score to get more analgesics than were routinely given by the nurses to patients with pain.…”

Pain assessment tools are often used by patients to report their pain and by health professionals to assess patients’ reported pain. Although valid and reliable assessment of pain is essential for high-quality clinical care, there are still many patients who experience inappropriate pain management. The aim of this scoping review is to examine an overview of how hospitalized patients evaluate and report their pain in collaboration with nurses. Systematic searches were conducted, and ten research articles were included using the PRISMA guidelines for scoping reviews. Content analysis revealed four main themes: 1) the relationship between the patient and nurse is an important factor of how hospitalized patients evaluate and report their post-surgery pain, 2) the patient’s feelings of inconsistency in how pain assessments are administered by nurses, 3) the challenge of hospitalized patients reporting post-surgery pain numerically, and 4) previous experiences and attitudes affect how hospitalized patients report their pain. Pain assessment tools are suitable for nurses to observe and assess pain in patients. Nevertheless, just using pain assessment tools is not sufficient for nurses to obtain a comprehensive clinical picture of each individual patient with pain.
