Posted March 18, 201015 yr Dear colleagues Yesterday I became aware of this forum, and I think it is an excellent medium to announce research in the field of Neonatology. Therefore I would like to invite you to take part in research concerning prolonged or chronic pain in the newborn. In the last decades much work has been done regarding acute and procedural pain. Prolonged or chronic pain still needs exploration. With the aid of your opinion and the Delphi method we aim at describing the concept of chronic pain in the newborn, including a definition and description of etiologic and diagnostic determinants. You can find detailed information about the background and methodology on www.ceepain.org. Furthermore, on www.ceepain.org you can participate in the first of our three-round Delphi survey. In this first round you will be asked to answer three short, open-ended questions. As I became aware of this website only yesterday there is not much time left to get on board of this exciting exploration. The first round of the survey will close on March 26th. With kind regards, Christ-jan van Ganzewinkel Neonatal Nurse Practitioner Department of Neonatology Máxima Medical Centre Veldhoven, The Netherlands
April 8, 201015 yr It would be interesting to hear if you managed to recruit responders here. And, I am personally also very interested to hear about the results from your survey. Important topic!
April 11, 201015 yr Author Round 1 of the survey closed today with 125 participants from 33 countries, mostly from the anglosaxon countries (US, Canada, New Zealand, UK) and the Netherlands. This result exceeded my expectations, so I am thrilled to carry on with the subsequent rounds. Round 2 will be opened on wednesday April 14th, and it will still be possible to register as a participant and value the statements extracted from the answers on the open answers from round 1.

September 27, 201212 yr Author The survey has been completed succesfully, and we have submitted our results for publication. The results will also be presented at EAPS 2012 in Istanbul. @ Stefan: I cannot tell you how many of our original participants found the way to the survey through this forum, we simply didn't ask that in the demographic section of the survey.
November 6, 201311 yr Author I am happy to inform you that our manuscript with the results of the survey has been accepted for publication in The Clinical Journal of Pain.
November 7, 201311 yr I am happy to inform you that our manuscript with the results of the survey has been accepted for publication in The Clinical Journal of Pain. Good news! Promise to post the link when the paper is published. BTW - how many responders did you recruit from the 99nicu member stock?
January 28, 201411 yr Author http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24296909 Epub ahead of print. Since I did not ask the source participants came from I cannot give an estimate of how many members of 99NICU completed the survey, sorry about that....
