pMDT in Thoracic Surgery--------For the Baseline Investigation and Technical Preparation Stage

Perioperative Pain Management With Multi-discipline Team(pMDT) in Thoracic Surgery: a Multi-center，Prospective, Observational Study--------For the Baseline Investigation and Technical Preparation Stage

The risk of acute and chronic pain after thoracic surgery is high. The multi-disciplinary postoperative pain management strategy is the best way to control postoperative pain in thoracic surgery. Through nearly one year of experience in implementation of the pMDT in the thoracic surgery department of Peking University People's Hospital, the investigators have summarized the experience in multidisciplinary pain management and promoted this study in multi-centers across the country, hoping that this study can improve the current situation of acute pain management in patients after thoracic surgery, and at the same time, the deficiencies of this clinical protocol can be found out and improved.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Pain, Postoperative
• Intervention / Treatment: Other: pMDT(Baseline Investigation)

Detailed Description

The postoperative acute pain refers to the acute pain (usually lasting less than 7 days) that occurs immediately after surgery, and its nature is traumatic pain. It may develop into a chronic pain, such as a neuropathic pain or a mixed pain, if it is not fully controlled at the initial state. It will seriously impact the physiology and psychology of a patient. According to the study, the postoperative acute pain is one of the risks for postoperative complications, and it may result in the death of a patient. However, the alleviation of a postoperative acute pain can shorten the duration of stay in hospital, and reduce the overall cost for treatment of a patient.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort	Intervention / Treatment
Stage 1; For the Baseline Investigation and Technical Preparation Stage	Other: pMDT(Baseline Investigation); The pMDT(Baseline Investigation) takes multi-model analgesia as the main technical means. Multimodal perioperative analgesia refers to the combination of analgesics, adjuvant drugs and analgesic techniques with different effects throughout the perioperative period to achieve the best curative effect of reducing postoperative acute and chronic pain.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
The degree of patients' satisfaction	The degree of patients' satisfaction on pain managements. Patients were asked to give a score from 0-10 (0 means dissatisfied, 10 means very satisfied).	3 days after surgery.
Incidence rate of postoperative pain	The percentage of patients with NRS score greater than 3	Up to 90 days after surgery.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Postoperative duration of stay in hospital	The duration when patients stay in hospital after surgery.	Up to 90 days after surgery.
Rehospitalization rate	The percentage of patients who are rehospitalized.	Up to 90 days after surgery.
Postoperative complication incidence rate	The percentage of patients with complications after surgery.	Up to 90 days after surgery.
