Effect of frailty on postoperative pain after robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy: prospective observational study(FRAP trial)
Not Applicable
- Conditions
- prostate cancer
- Registration Number
- JPRN-UMIN000038969
- Lead Sponsor
- Dept. of Urology, Hirosaki University Graduate School of Medicine
- Brief Summary
Frailty was significantly associated with moderate to severe pain after RARP, and might be a potential predictor of postoperative pain. Frail patients require individual care to avoid painful experiences.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The primary purpose was the effect of G8 =<14, sFI, postoperative complications, and use of analgesics on moderate-to-severe pain (NRS >=5) after RARP.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The secondary purpose was the association of G8 =<14 with sFI, postoperative complications, and analgesics. Exploratory purposes included 1) the association of frailty and time-dependent change of NRS, 2) the association of the maximum pain and sum of NRS, and 3) the optimal cutoff value evaluation of G8 score for NRS >=5 using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.
