NCT01707212

Brief Summary

There are numerous pain management strategies available for the management of infant immunization pain. The majority of infants, however do not benefit from these interventions, which causes them to suffer pain unnecessarily. This study will assess the impact of educating parents about pain management strategies on their knowledge and behaviour regarding pain management during routine 2-month infant immunization injections.
