Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

postoperative opioid consumption

Time frame
48 hours

Secondary outcomes

1

postoperative recovery quality

TThe Quality of Recovery-15 (QoR-15) is a 15-question questionnaire validated to assess poetoperative recovery. This questionnaire assesses patients' pain, physical comfort, physical independence, psychological support, and emotional status in the erly postoperative period. The patient is asked to express their status scoring from 0 to 10; therefore, the total score ranges from 0 to 150 points.

Time frame
24 hours
2

postoperative pain scores

The NRS score (0=no pain; 10=most severe pain) will be used to assess postoperative pain

Time frame
48 hours
3

chronic pain

Patients will be telephoned 3 months after the operation and the presence, localization, and intensity of the pain, its character, and its relation with rest and/or activity will be recorded by asking only verbally. The NRS score (0=no pain; 10=most severe pain) will be used to assess postoperative pain.

Time frame
