• A systematic review of the pain scales in adults: Which to use? (2018, background): “One of the first reviews on comparison of the three pain scales (VAS, VRS, and NRS) were published by Williamson and Hoggart in 2005 and they reported that all three scales were valid, reliable and appropriate for use, although the VAS had more practical difficulties than the other two scales [28].”
• Sedation and analgesia in the mechanically ventilated patient. (2012, methodology): “This scale uses a 0-to-10 scale, anchored by the descriptors “no pain” and “pain as bad as it could be” (12).”
