Data Collection for Prediction of Postoperative Chronic Pain for a Software

Postoperative Persistent Pain (PPP) is reported with a high incidence in adults 11.5-47%. This high incidence effects quality of life of patients causes social-economical problems and arises medico-legal issues. This study will be undertaken for producing a database by the evaluation of surgeries in 4 hospitals located in Istanbul. This database will be used in establishing a software by using data mining technology in the prediction of PPP

Key information

About this study

All cases operated in 4 different hospitals in one month period will be included Exclusion criteria: cases who could not be followed up to 2 months postoperatively by telephone call.

A questionnaire will be filled preoperatively for each case after obtaining informed case . All cases will be anesthetized and pain therapy will be applied according to anesthesiologist's own practice and pain relief will be evaluated and noted. All patients will be telephoned postoperatively for the pain level at 15,30,45 and 60th day. All the information will be uploaded to computer and a software will be prepared for prediction of postoperative chronic pain.

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence of postoperative chronic pain

    Time frame: postoperative 3 months

    Postoperative chronic pain is pain in the area of surgery lasting at least 2 months postoperatively regardless of infection, recurrence of disease and etc.

Secondary outcomes

  1. preparation of software for the prediction of postoperative chronic pain

    Time frame: 8 months

    the information from the questioners to the patients will be uploaded to an excel sheet and the IT group will prepare a software by using the data mining technology
