A longitudinal randomized trial of the impact of consistent pain management for infant vaccinations on future vaccination distress

The objective was to determine if consistent pain management during vaccine injections has a beneficial effect on future infant pain reactivity. This was a multicentre, longitudinal, double-blind, double-dummy, add-on, randomized controlled trial. Healthy infants were randomized to 1 of 4 add-on pain management regimens for all vaccinations in the first year of life: 1) placebo control (standard care); 2) parent video education about infant soothing (video); 3) video + oral sucrose solution (sucrose), 4) video + sucrose + topical liposomal lidocaine (lidocaine).
