Brief Summary
Pain is an unpleasant sensory experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage. Acute pain management is an important aspect of perioperative anesthetic care. Moreover, it is the most important factor related to patient discomfort after surgery. Adequate pain management, ideally resulting in the complete absence of postoperative pain, not only provides comfort to patients, but may also contribute to improved healing and a reduction in the incidence of postoperative complications. Inadequate postoperative analgesia has been shown to contribute to adverse outcomes, including, but not limited to, immunosuppression, hyperglycemia, poor rehabilitation, and progression to chronic pain.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Pain: reduction in severity based on VAS score.
The post operative analgetic effect will be assessed by the amount of analgesia required in the post-operative period and by regular pain measurements using VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) - at 0.5 hours post operation in the recovery room, 8 hours post operation and the morning of first post operative day
the morning of first post operative day
consumption of postoperative pain medication type, dosage and reduction in the demand postoperatively.
The data will be collected from the medical file
the morning of first post operative day
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Readmission for any reason.
one week
Duration of hospital stay.
