Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Postoperative pain after 6 hours postoperatively

    Each patient will be given a pain diary based on Numerical Rating Scale(NRS). NRS is an 11-point scale consisting of numbers from 0 through 10. 0 reading represents "no pain" 1- 3 readings represent "mild pain" 4- 6 readings represent "moderate pain" 7- 10 readings represent "severe pain"

    6 hours postoperatively

  • Postoperative pain after 12 hours postoperatively

    Each patient will be given a pain diary based on Numerical Rating Scale(NRS). NRS is an 11-point scale consisting of numbers from 0 through 10. 0 reading represents "no pain" 1- 3 readings represent "mild pain" 4- 6 readings represent "moderate pain" 7- 10 readings represent "severe pain"

    12 hours postoperatively

  • Postoperative pain after 24 hours postoperatively

    Each patient will be given a pain diary based on Numerical Rating Scale(NRS). NRS is an 11-point scale consisting of numbers from 0 through 10. 0 reading represents "no pain" 1- 3 readings represent "mild pain" 4- 6 readings represent "moderate pain" 7- 10 readings represent "severe pain"

    24 hours postoperatively

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Overall (clinical and radiographic) success after 6 months postoperatively.
