The treatment of acute severe pain in pediatric emergencies required a quick and effective therapeutic support. Actually in France, only peripheral venous access or oral therapies with onset of action are commonly used and only few treatments can be used to manage the acute severe pain in children. In June 2017, an intranasal fentanyl use protocol has been established in the pediatric emergency department of Mercy hospital-Metz. The intranasal fentanyl treatment has proved his effectiveness and safe condition in many countries since few years even though has not yet obtained a marketing authorization for use in children in France. In view of the information, parental permission was obtained before the intranasal administration. The efficacy and surveillance data in all patient records of children who benefited this analgesic protocol were retrospectively collected between June 2017 and August 2018. This retrospective study wants to describe the efficacy and safety of intranasal fentanyl on the pediatric emergency department.

| Pain scale evolution | Face Legs Activity Cry Consolability (FLACC) scale or Visual Analog Scale (VAS) FLACC scale involve, as its name implies, 5 items: face, legs, activity, cry and consolability with a score ranging from 0 to 2 each, knowing that 0 represents "no pain". The sum of each items is from 0 to 10, and 10 constitutes an intense pain. VAS is a 100-mm long horizontal line with verbal descriptors at each end to express the extremes of the feeling. Patients should mark the point on the line that the best correspond to their symptom severity. The patient's mark indicates pain severity and it's quantified by measuring the distance in millimeter from 0 (0 representes "no pain" and 100 represents "worst possible pain") | Day 1 |
