Traitement de l'inconfort
Hi,
The term 'Traitement de l'inconfort' comes up in a hospital discharge report from an ICU as one of the treatment options available. 'Prise en charge de la douleur' and 'Prise en charge palliative' are already given as options, which is a bit annoying as I considered translating this term as 'Pain management' or 'Palliative care.'
What about Symptom relief' or similar? Admittedly, this comes rather close to 'Pain management.'
Thank you in advance.

ABSTRACT
Introduction: Persons with disorders of consciousness (DoC) may perceive pain without being able to communicate their discomfort. Nociception Coma Scale (NCS) and its revised form (NCS-R) have been proposed to assess nociception in coma survivors with DoC.

Discussion
The ST was a standalone FR text for a hospital in France – no other source languages as far as I know.
I went for 'Treatment of discomfort' in the end. Thank you, liz askew.
IN German, there is a term "Beschwerden" which is also a bit vague, but simply means symptoms. So perhaps you can use the same here.
