NCT03731039

Brief Summary

Each surgical intervention associated with even a minor tissue injury is a source of pain which needs to be effectively controlled. Although the Polish national guidelines for post-operative pain management have been published, many patients experience moderate and severe pain in the postoperative period. The aim of this study is (1) to assess pain severity among adult patients after different types of surgeries; (2) to identify demographic and clinical factors associated with postoperative pain.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Pain intensity scores at rest

    Pain intensity is assessed using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), where 0 meant no pain and 10 maximum pain. Numeric scores of 1-3, 4-6, and 7-10 corresponded to mild, moderate and severe pain.

    first 24 hours after surgery

  • Pain intensity scores on movement

    Pain intensity is assessed using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), where 0 meant no pain and 10 maximum pain. Numeric scores of 1-3, 4-6, and 7-10 corresponded to mild, moderate and severe pain.

    first 24 hours after surgery

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Anxiety scores

    day prior to surgery

  • Depression scores
