Identification of pain in neonates: the adults’ visual perception of neonatal facial features. Journal of Perinatology. 2021 12:1-5.)

From the Infant webpage: "Users of PainChek Infant can include healthcare professionals or laypersons, in settings including clinical studies, hospitals, day surgery centres, GP clinics or the home."
Also, very recently updated banner on the Painchek homepage:
