Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Pain score. Timepoint: 2, 4, 8, 12 hours after surgery in clavicle fracture patients. Method of measurement: This parameter is measured by the Visual Analogue Scale. This scale for measuring pain represents a 10 cm line printed on a piece of paper. Patients will be assessed at the beginning of the study, 2, 4, 8, and 12 hours after surgery.;Amount of narcotic painkiller. Timepoint: If the patient has a visual pain scale greater than four. Method of measurement: If the patient has a visual analog scale >4, 0.05mg/kg morphine IV will be administered and the time will be recorded. In addition, the dose of opioid analgesic used will be evaluated in the two study groups.	—
