“…In our study findings, despite a high prevalence rate of POP, the percentage of patient satisfied with POP treatment was very high .Similar findings have been reported in Sweden (Svesson, 2001). A relatively slightly lower satisfaction rate has been reported from a study in Finland (Niemi-Murola et al, 2007). Both higher POP and satisfaction rates have been reported in other studies elsewhere (Kolawole & Fawole, 2003;Sauaia et al, 2005).…”

Inadequately controlled postoperative pain (POP) subjects individuals to complications which may be fatal or leading to prolonged hospital stay. Complications from inadequately controlled POP may alleviate the existing shortage of hospital human resource for health in health facilities in developing countries. The burden and challenges of POP management at health facilities in Tanzania is not known. This study was therefore carried out to evaluate postoperative pain management and patient satisfaction with care given at Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Centre (KCMC). This descriptive prospective hospital based study, was conducted at the Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Centre in Moshi, Tanzania from August 2011 to March 2012. POP and patients' satisfaction with pain relief scores were assessed using pain and satisfaction numerical rating scales. Pain assessment was done at 24 hours and 48 hours after operation. Satisfaction was assessed on 48 hours post surgery. All adult patient aged 18 years and above whom were operated in general surgery ward, KCMC and accepted by signing consent were involved in the study. Patients suffering from nervous system were excluded from the study. A total number of 124 patients were recruited and participated in the study. Sixty-five (52.4%) were males and 59 (47.6%) females. Mean age (SD) years 40.9 ± 15.4. The largest percentage of individuals had mild pain both at rest (45.2%) and during movement (44.4%). Patients whose analgesia was administered intravenously were more likely to be satisfied with POP management than those given intramuscular analgesics (P= 0.028). Analgesia used in combination increased significantly the proportion of pain free individuals 48 hours postoperative compared to 24 hours postoperative (P= 0.003). In conclusion, the postoperative pain management is still a challenge in our centre as nearly half of the patient had mild pain in the first 48 hours post surgery. ______________________________________________________________________________________________

“…26,27 In addition, although persistent pain is the key indication for total hip or knee replacement, the need for pain management continues after surgery. 464,465 Over half of patients undergoing total hip or knee replacement report moderate to severe pain on the first day after surgery. 70 Chronic post-surgical pain is also common, with 10-34% of TKR patients and 7-23% of THR patients reporting long-term pain after their operation.…”

Preoperative information and/or patient education also have a positive influence on postoperative pain and satisfaction, [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] following coronary bypass surgery, 10 abdominal surgeries, 11 as well as hip and knee joint replacement procedures.

Purpose. To evaluate the effects of perioperative information for wrist arthroscopy on postoperative pain, return to daily activities, and patient satisfaction. Methods. 34 women and 21 men aged 19 to 54 (mean, 35) years underwent diagnostic wrist arthroscopy to explore the radiocarpal and midcarpal joints. They were randomised to receive specific preoperative information on the procedure (pictures of the wrist joint anatomy, portal entry sites, and the arthroscope) and written instructions on postoperative care (n=28) or only standard preoperative information and verbal instructions on postoperative care (n=27). The visual analogue score (VAS) for pain and the Quick Dash score for return to daily activities of each patient were recorded before and after wrist arthroscopy. Analgesic intake after wrist arthroscopy was recorded. Results. The mean post-arthroscopic VAS from days 2 to 6 was significantly lower in the experimental group than controls. This was reflected by the decrease 2011;19(1):85-8 in analgesic intake. The mean post-arthroscopic Quick Dash score was significantly lower in the experimental group than controls (40 vs. 47, p=0.02), indicating earlier return to daily activities. Conclusion. Patients who received specific preoperative information on the procedure and written instructions on postoperative care experienced less pain, consumed less analgesics, and had an earlier return to daily activities.
