Figure 2

Median scores observed by all the observers with each of the three tools, according to different situations. This figure shows the median scores of the three tools evaluated by all the observers according to different situations: before, during and after repositioning, turning and suctioning. The left figures show that there was a significant increase in each of the three scores from baseline to procedure and a significant decrease 10 minutes after the procedure. The right figures showed the scores measured during the different procedures. Among them, turning and suctioning were significantly the most painful.
