Could Algometric Assessment be Effective to Adjust Postoperative Analgesic Requirement?

February 24, 2015 updated by: Ziya Kaya, Tokat Gaziosmanpasa University
The purpose of this study is to determine the correlation between preoperative algometer score and the amount of postoperative analgesic consumption. The algometer score of the patients will be recorded in the preoperative period. In postoperative period, the analgesic consumption rate will record and compare with the algometer score.

Detailed Description

The aim of this study is to define the correlation between preoperative algometer score and the analgesic consumption rate. A total of 80 patients whose undergo septoplasty or septorhinoplasty will be included in this study. After preoperative examination, a positive pressure using algometer device will be performed until minimal pain is felt. In postoperative period, the amount of analgesic consumption of the patient will record and compare with the algometer score.
