Abstract

Adequate pain management for preterm born neonates suffering from the extremely painful disease necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is essential, since neonatal exposure to pain is related to negative short-term and long-term consequences. The aim of this study was to describe the current pain management and its effectiveness in NEC patients.
