Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The main parameter of this study is pain 24 hours postoperative measured by the <br><br>numeric rating scale (NRS). <br><br>Measurements will be performed during admission pre- and post GRS-treatment. <br><br>The control group will have a single measurement, during the time an intervention <br><br>patient would normally be treated with the GRS. Before NRS assessment patients will be <br><br>asked to remain seated or prone in bed for at least 5 minutes. This ensures NRS <br><br>measurement in rest.
