Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Visual Analogue Score
Time Frame: T0:(Baseline) Postoperative 1st hour, T1: Change in 2nd, T2: Change in 4th, T3: Change in 6th, T4: Change in 12th, T5: Change in 24th, T6: Change in 36th, T7: Change in 48th, T8: Change in 72nd hours
measurement of postoperative pain using Visual Analogue Score. Minimum: 0 Maximum: 10. Higher values represent more pain, hence lower values are better
