Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Time to the 1st rescue analgesia

Time to the first request for the rescue analgesia (time from the end of surgery to the first dose of pethidine administrated).

Time frame
24 hours postoperatively

Secondary outcomes

1

Total pethidine consumption

All patients will receive intravenous pethidine (30mg) on demand \[Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score ≥3\].

Time frame
24 hours postoperatively
2

Degree of pain

Degree of pain will be assessed using visual analogue scale (VAS). Each patient will be instructed about postoperative pain assessment with the VAS. VAS (0 represents "no pain" while 10 represents "the worst pain imaginable"). VAS will be assessed at 0, 6, 12, and 24 hours postoperatively.

Time frame
24 hours postoperatively
3

Length of hospital stay

Length of hospital stay will be recorded from admission till the discharge from hospital.

Time frame
Till discharge from hospital (Up to one week).
4

Time needed for the patient to freely move the operated limb

Time needed for the patient to freely move the operated limb will be recorded.

Time frame
Postoperatively (Up to one week).
