Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Changes in VAS score before and after posterior spinal fusion surgery. Timepoint: The VAS score will be measured before and after one year of surgery to determine the degree of pain reduction. Method of measurement: The patient's pain level is assessed on a horizontal line of 100 mm that its left end represents no pain, and the right end corresponds to the most severe pain that can be experienced. The patient is asked to mark the pain intensity they are experiencing currently.
