Postoperative Pain Evaluation Protocol

Neurological conditions were assessed using the American Spine Injury Association (ASIA) impairment scale [15 (link)]. In addition, postoperative low back pain was classified according to the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) scoring system as follows: no pain (3 points), occasional minor back pain (2 points), constant back pain or sometimes severe back pain (1 point), and constant severe back pain (0 points) [16 (link)]. In this study, postoperative severe back pain was defined as positive in patients with zero or one point.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
