Summary

Vaccine injections are a significant source of pain for infants. Altering the injection speed when administering vaccines may be an effective intervention and is feasible (cost neutral). At present, there are no data regarding impact of injection speed on vaccine injection pain in infants. The aim of this study is to address this knowledge gap and to compare the impact of slow and fast vaccine injection speeds on pain during routine infant vaccinations.
