Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
the incidence of POST scores>3
Time Frame: within 24 hours after surgery.
POST was evaluated by the Numerical Rating Scale(NRS),which ranges from 0 to 10 points,with 0 indicating completely painless,1\~3 indicating mild discomfort,4\~6 indicating moderate pain,and 7\~10 indicating severe pain .
Secondary Outcomes
- the POST scores(2 hours,6 hours and 24 hours after surgery.)
