Brief Summary

Postoperative pain remains a widespread but still underestimated problem. Studies have shown that despite improvements in pain management, many patients still suffer from moderate to severe postoperative pain. Severe pain is associated with decreased patient satisfaction, delayed postoperative ambulation, prolonged length of stay, risk of developing chronic postoperative pain, and increased morbidity and mortality. Therefore, it is of great importance that surgical procedures that result in severe pain and the optimal analgesic strategies for these procedures can be identified. Most recommendations on postoperative pain management (prevention and treatment) are not procedure-specific. However, risk factors for postoperative pain depend on the patient and the procedure.

In order to develop procedure-specific postoperative pain management guidelines, pain must be assessed in a procedure-specific manner. Additionally, data is sparse on relatively new procedures like robotic surgery. A study, Harel et al. compared pain intensities after ureteral reimplantation with robotic or open surgery in children and reported lower pain scores after robotic surgery. This single study reinforces the clinical findings that robotic surgery is associated with less pain. However, pain assessment after robotic urologic surgery has not been evaluated before.

In order to add to the evaluation of postoperative pain in different surgical groups, we wish to evaluate pain intensities after robot-assisted urological surgery. In this cohort study, we seek to provide an estimate of the pain intensities that can be expected after most types of robot-assisted urological surgery in relation to analgesic treatment.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Pain level on D1 of surgeryDay 1 after surgery

Measurement of pain intensity on D1 of surgery, assessed with a simple numerical scale (ENS). Scores range from 0-10 points, with higher scores indicating greater pain intensity.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Time of the first ambulationTime of the first ambulation during hospitalization

Time from robotic assisted urological surgery to the first ambulation

Presence of side effect: Nausea and vomitingIn the first 48 hours

Patient presenting or not nausea and vomiting in the first 48 hours

Highest pain score at rest and during exerciseIn the first 48 hours

Highest pain score in the first 48 hours at rest and during exercise. Pain intensity assessed with a simple numerical scale (ENS). Scores range from 0-10 points, with higher scores indicating greater pain intensity.

Pain intensity (NRS) at rest and during exerciseSecond day after surgery

Pain intensity on the second day after surgery (NRS) at rest and during exercise. Pain intensity assessed with a simple numerical scale (ENS). Scores range from 0-10 points, with higher scores indicating greater pain intensity.

ComplicationsPeriod is defined from the day of robotic assisted urological surgery until the end of hospitalisation

Complications according to the Dindo and Clavien classification

Length of stayFrom the first day of hospitalization to the last day of hospitalization

Length of stay at hospital (number of days)

Date and time of resumption of transitDate and time of resumption of transit

number of days between robotic assisted urological surgery and resumption of transit

Consumption of morphineDuring the 48 hours after surgery

Consumption of morphine (or equivalent (see morphine equivalent table)) in mg 48 hours after surgery

Duration of surgeryDuration of surgery

Duration of surgery: time between the begining of the robotic assisted urological surgery and the end of surgery.

Operator experience for the robotic assisted urological surgeryOperator experience is the number of years from the first robotic assisted urological surgery performed by the operator until the surgery of the patient included in this study.

Operator experience for the robotic assisted urological surgery, classified in 3 ranges: less than 5 years; between 5 and 10 years; more than 10 years
