Chronic Cancer Pain; Pain Management

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Patient reported NRS score

  Numeric Rating Score (NRS) is an 11-point scale with scores ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst imaginable pain), with higher scores indicating greater pain severity and therefore a worse outcome.

  Patient reported NRS score will be recorded at baseline, and subsequent visit (till maximum three months) in the pain management clinic.

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• Character of chronic pain

  At baseline and the follow-up visit ( till maximum three months) to the pain management clinic.

• Frequency of pain intervention procedure

  At the end of three months.
