The primary objectives of this study were to assess patients\u2019 description of their acute pain intensity; patients\u2019 attitude towards their pain management during hospitalization; and their overall satisfaction with pain treatment.<jats:italic>Methodology<\/jats:italic>. A cross-sectional questionnaire-based study was conducted between October 2014 and March 2015 in three medical centers in Lebanon. All participants\u2019 responses were reported using descriptive statistics. The association between categorical variables was evaluated using Pearson<jats:italic>\u03c7<\/jats:italic><jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>test or Fisher\u2019s exact test where the expected cell count was &lt; 5.<jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>. A total of 119 women on the maternity services and 177 patients on the orthopedic services were surveyed. Around 50% of obstetric and 37% of orthopedic patients reported pain to be severe at its highest intensity. In maternity and orthopedic patients, respectively, unfavorable practices included pain not being assessed prior to pain medication administration (19.3% and 30.5%), having to wait for \u226530 minutes before getting the pain medication (14.2% and 11.3%), and pain score not being documented on medical chart (95% and 93.2%). Surprisingly, 94.1% of the maternity and 89.2% of orthopedic patients were satisfied to strongly satisfied with their pain management.<jats:italic>Conclusion<\/jats:italic>. Pre- and postoperative pain remain a prevalent problem that requires a consensus and joint efforts for improvement.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2017\/7459360","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,3,28]],"date-time":"2017-03-28T21:05:32Z","timestamp":1490735132000},"page":"1-12","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":27,"title":["Patient Perception of Acute Pain Management: Data from Three Tertiary Care Hospitals"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2017","author":[{"given":"Elsy","family":"Ramia","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pharmacy Practice, School of Pharmacy, Lebanese American University, P.O.
