Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
-Once patient is awake the patient is asked about pain (NRS score) and need for analgesics is assessed -Need for analgesia in Recovery room -If analgesics not required previously time of first demand of analgesics in HDU : Timepoint: 1 hour after surgery is again asked about pain with rest and movement ( NRS score) and need for analgesics. Once shifted to post operative ward and the time to request for first dose of analgesic is assessed if analgesics not requested till then. Post operatively patient will be again assessed at 6, 12,18 and 24 hours on NRS score both at rest and movement.	—
