Three organizations have now said the same thing
This is no longer a difference of opinion between reasonable clinicians.
For most of the history of this problem there was nothing written down, so a woman who reported pain was arguing against a room. That has changed. Statements from three international organizations now set out how pain during a cesarean should be prevented, assessed and treated.
They agree on the substance. The patient's report is the measurement. It should be acknowledged first and assessed, not reclassified. It should be treated promptly, with the options explained. It should be documented. And the woman should be followed up afterwards rather than left to reconstruct what happened alone.
The obstetric anesthesiologists who drove this work have been explicit that the field was slow, and that the delay was itself the harm. You are not asking for a favor when you cite it. You are asking for what the specialty has already agreed is ordinary care.
