VAS scores range from 0 to 100, with 0 representing no pain or the least desirable state and 100 representing the worst possible pain or the most desirable state. The "score" is the distance in millimeters from the "no pain" end of the 100mm line to the point where the person marks their pain level. Lower scores (0-4mm) indicate no pain, while higher scores (75-100mm) indicate severe pain.

Cumulative morphine milligram equivalent (MME) is a metric used by healthcare providers to standardize the total potency of all opioid medications a patient is taking. By converting each opioid into a standard value based on morphine, providers can assess a patient's overall risk for overdose and other complications. Higher cumulative MME levels are associated with a greater risk of overdose. For example, doses of 50 MME or more per day increase overdose risk and warrant closer monitoring, while doses of 90 MME or more are considered very high.

Complications from intracavernosal injections

Other complications after IPP surgery using the Clavien-Dindo grading scale - The Clavien-Dindo scale is a grading system that categorizes surgical complications based on the treatment required to manage them, providing a uniform and objective way to assess and report post-operative events. It consists of five grades, with Grade I being minor deviations not requiring intervention and Grade V indicating patient death

Serum bupivacaine levels at 1 hour and 1 day after surgery - Serum bupivacaine levels are a measurement of the drug in the blood, and the "normal" or safe level varies significantly by the patient's condition, the administration site, and the dose - A 1-mL serum or plasma sample is typically collected in a red-top or green-top tube

Use the lowest dose possible for the shortest time needed. Take your prescribed dose as indicated by your healthcare provider. The maximum dosage is 1 or 2 tablets every 4 to 6 hours, as needed for pain relief.
