Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Medical recovery is determined by the following criteria. 1. Recovery of motor function (period of time required for the status at least comparable with the one in preoperative time, or period of time required for the first time walking after surgery) 2. Recovery of the function of digestive system (period of time required for the first time feces and flatus after surgery). 3. Pain control (period of time required for the switch to oral analgesia, and the number of time subjects use analgesics)
