Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • visual analog scale (VAS) pain score

    The VAS consisted of a 10 cm line ranging from 0 to 10 (anchored by 0=no pain and 10=very severe pain). Patients were asked to mark the number that represented their perceived level of pain. Based on the VAS scores, the pain level ratings were classified as: mild (rated 1-3), moderate (4-6) or severe (7-10).
