RESUMEN
A la luz de estudios recientes se explican e interpretan la forma como el nino expresa el dolor ( conducta dolorosa) y la manera como emergen los aspectos biologicos, de comportamiento y cognitivos de esa expresion, a medida que avanza en el proceso de maduracion. Se hace enfasis en que a menudo, con base en conceptos ya revaluados, se permite que los ninos sufran dolor innecesariamente; tambien en la necesidad de que el medico y la enfermera sepan descifrar el lenguaje no verbal por medio del cual el nino expresa el dolor para poderlo prevenir yaliviar
ABSTRACT
The expression of pain by Infants and small children (painful conduct) Is reviewed based on recent studies; the emergence of biologic, behavioral and cognitive aspects of that expression, as maturation takes place, is briefly described; emphasis is made on the fact that Infants and small children are often allowed to suffer unnecessary pain, on the basis of previous misconceptions; also, the need for physicians and nurses to be able to interpret the non-verbal language of Infant's pain is underlined, so that prevention and early treatment can become possible.
