Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Incidence of moderate to severe painWithin 72 hours after surgeryVisual analog score is 4 points or more
Pain scoreWithin 72 hours after surgeryVisual analog scale

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
SedationWithin 48 hours after surgeryRamsay sedation score(The score is 1-6 points, the higher the score, the higher the degree of sedation, the ideal sedation score is 2 points)
AnxietyBaseline (Before operation), 24 hours after operation, 72 hours after operationHamilton Anxiety Scale(There are a total of 14 options. Each item is divided into 0-4 points according to the degree, and the score is 0-56 points. The total score is ≥29 points, which may be severe anxiety; ≥21 points, there must be obvious anxiety; ≥14 points, there must be Anxiety; more than 7 points, there may be anxiety; if less than 7, there are no anxiety symptoms.)
Adverse reactionsWithin 72 hours after surgeryNausea, vomiting, lethargy, mental symptoms, etc.
Sleep conditionWithin 72 hours after surgerySleep quality(Self-assessment by the patient, the score is 1-5 points, the higher the score, the better the sleep)
Chronic painOne month after surgeryChronic pain conversion rate(Follow-up one month after surgery, if there are still pain symptoms, it is chronic pain)
DepressionBaseline (Before operation), 24 hours after operation, 72 hours after operationHamilton Depression Scale(There are a total of 17 options, and each item is divided into 0-4 points or 0-2 points according to the degree. The total score is less than 7 points: normal; the total score is 7\ 17 points: there may be depression; the total score is 17\ 24 points : There must be depression; total score\> 24 points: severe depression)
Postoperative analgesiaWithin 48 hours after surgeryPCIA usage(ml), PCIA compressions(frequency), remedial analgesia measures(Name and dosage of intravenous analgesics)
