我们检查了疼痛评估的计算机化格式PAINReportIt的可用性（完成时间、可接受性和信息完整性）。PAINReportIt是1970年麦吉尔疼痛问卷的第一个交互式软件扩展。本描述性比较研究招募了213例疼痛患者。受试者使用带触摸屏的Microsoft（R）Windows 95/98个人电脑完成1）PAINReportIt、2）人口统计学和3）可接受性问题。来自研究的定性和定量数据支持PAINReportIt作为患者自我报告疼痛的可行方法。患者平均在不到18分钟的时间内完成该工具，回答所有部分，并在可接受性方面得分很高。改进的指导和实践屏幕可能会提高患者在完成PAINReportIt时的独立性，这将使临床医生能够专注于更复杂的疼痛问题的直接沟通。
We examined, usability (completion time, acceptability, and completeness of information) of a computerized format for pain assessment, PAINReportIt. PAINReportIt is the first interactive software extension of the 1970 McGill Pain Questionnaire. Two hundred thirteen, patients experiencing pain were recruited for this descriptive, comparative study. Subjects used a Microsoft(R) Windows 95/98 personal computer with a touch-screen to complete 1) PAINReportIt, 2) demographic, and 3) acceptability questions. Qualitative and quantitative data from the study support PAINReportIt as a feasible method, for patients to self-report their pain. Patients completed the tool in less than 18 minutes on average, answered all sections, and scored it high regarding acceptability. Improved, directions and practice screens would likely improve patients' independence in completing PAINReportIt, which would free clinicians to focus direct communication on more complex pain, issues.
