Figure 1

Relationships between the Verbal Visual Analog Scale (VB-VAS) and the VAS for volunteers' perception of pain associated with injections using different needle types. The solid grey line is the fitted line and the dashed grey lines are simultaneous 95% prediction boundaries for the whole curve. The green line represents the line of perfect agreement and the estimated equation that characterizes the relationship is: VB-VAS = 4.64 + 1.12*VAS – 0.005*VAS2. TPE, Thermo Plastic Elastomer.
