FLACC Behavioral Pain Scale
The FLACC Behavioral Pain Scale (Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability) is a 5-item observational tool developed by Merkel and Voepel-Lewis in 1997 to assess acute pain in children ages 2 months to 7 years who are unable to self-report pain. Each of the five behavioral domains is scored 0-2, yielding a total score of 0-10. The FLACC is widely used in pediatric hospitals, recovery rooms, and intensive care units for postoperative and acute pain assessment.
