Abstract：Objective To investigate the status quo and related factors of postoperative pain in costal cartilage harvest children with microtia.Methods A convenient sample of 172 costal cartilage harvest children with microtia from the ear reconstruction depart-ment of a Beijing tertiary grade A hospital were investigated with a self-designed questionnaire,and the pain degree at rest and during ac-tivity was assessed by Wong-Baker Faces Pain Rating Scale.Results The incidence of pain at rest was 89.02％and the incidence of moderate to severe pain was 22.48％within 0～96 hours after operation;The incidence of pain during activity was 96.48％and the incidence of moderate to severe pain was 53.20％within 0～96 hours after operation.The mean value of children's pain score during activity was maintained at a high level(more than 6 points)within 6～24 hours after operation.There were significant differences in postoperative pain scores among different educational background of parents,work status of parents,family location,family structure,anesthetics and analgesic pump drugs(P＜0.05).The multiple linear regression analysis showed that gender,whether the child is an only child and family structure had significant effects on the postoperative pain scores(P＜0.05).Conclusion Postoperative pain in costal cartilage harvest children showed its high incidence and severity.Gender,whether the child is an only child,family structure are the main influencing factors of post-operative pain.
