[Pain assessment in the postanaesthesia recovery room].
Pain assessment is an important activity in nursing care. Postanaesthesia recovery rooms are specialised care units. Pain assessment must form part of a global approach, beyond an objective of care. The nurse plays a key role from the reception of the patient through to their transfer to the ward.
