Vaccine injections are the most commonly performed medical procedure worldwide. Pain is a salient feature of vaccine injections and contributes to a negative vaccination experience for individuals being vaccinated and onlookers alike. 1 Concern about pain is also a documented barrier to future vaccine uptake, and vaccine noncompliance increases the risk for outbreaks of vaccine-preventable disease. 1 Managing pain therefore has immediate and long-term implications for the health and well-being of individuals and populations, and is thus highly clinically and scientifically relevant. Clinical research evidence about managing pain during vaccine injections is continually being generated, which has the potential to significantly improve the vaccination experience and minimize the adverse sequelae of pain. However, this evidence needs to be adopted in clinical practice before it can have an impact. Uptake of research evidence into practice has been described as uneven, slow, and unpredictable across all aspects of health care, creating clinical care gaps. 2 Vaccination pain management is no exception. There are well-documented discrepancies between research evidence and practice, such that the majority of individuals do not benefit from evidence-based pain treatments. 3, 4This supplement issue of the Clinical Journal of Pain is devoted to addressing the clinical care gap in vaccination pain management. It provides a knowledge synthesis of the current global research evidence on this topic. This largescale knowledge synthesis is an update and expansion of a previous knowledge synthesis undertaken in 2009 by the same authors. 5–7 Help ELiminate Pain in Kids and Adults
