Abstract:

Background Although intravenous morphine titration is widely used to obtain rapid and complete postoperative pain relief, the relationship between measurement of pain and morphine requirements varies, and the evolution of pain during titration is poorly understood. Methods Intravenous morphine titration was administered as a bolus of 2 (body weight &lt; or = 60 kg) or 3 mg (body weight &gt; 60 kg) during the immediate postoperative period in the PACU. The interval between each bolus was 5 min. The visual analog scale (VAS) score threshold required to administer morphine was 30, and pai

Abstract:

OBJECTIVEThe visual analog scale (VAS) is frequently used to measure treatment outcome in patients with cervical spine disorders. The minimum clinically important difference (MCID) is the smallest change in a score that has clinical importance to the patient. Although it has been established for other medical fields, knowledge of the VAS MCID for the cervical spine is sparse, and it has rarely been considered in relation to measurement noise. The goals in this study were as follows: 1) to validate the VAS-neck and VAS-arm instruments for the cervical spine (e.g., repeatability); 2) to investig

Objectives To evaluate the effect of wet needling (related to acupuncture) and home stretching exercises on myofascial trigger points (MTrPs) in abdominal muscles for the treatment of dysmenorrhoea. Methods The effect of wet needing of MTrPs in abdominal muscles, supplemented by home stretching exercises, was observed in 65 patients with moderate and severe primary dysmenorrhoea. The MTrPs in the abdominal region were localised and repeatedly needled with lidocaine injection. Menstrual pain was evaluated with a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score after every treatment, with the final evaluation

Abstract:

Background:Stress and fatigue are evaluated subjectively by patients using a visual analog scale (VAS) and questionnaires such as the SF-36 and the FACIT Fatigue Scale. Such evaluations are based on patients’ self-reported outcomes. It is difficult to evaluate stress and fatigue objectively. A digitizing device was used to quantify stress objectively.Objectives:To evaluate the correlations of a digitizing device and a VAS or a questionnaire about stress and fatigue, and the relationships with disease activity of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Methods:Data from a prospective observatio

BACKGROUND: Allergic rhinitis is a common condition caused by inflammation of the nasal mucosa after exposure to allergens and is mediated by Immunoglobulin E (IgE). Cold temperatures can aggravate the symptoms of allergic rhinitis. Allergic rhinitis is not fatal, but it can cause a decrease in the patient's quality of life if the symptoms are severe. The severity of allergic rhinitis symptoms is difficult to measure as it should match patient's perception, so VAS is a quantitative measurement tool used. Although VAS is a simple and easy-to-use tool, its use as self-monitoring for AR patients

Spearman’s correlation coefficients between the VAS score and global TFI ranged from ρ = 0.52 for VAS-coping (VAS-C) to ρ = 0.81 for VAS-annoyance (VAS-A). Using the Bland-Altman method, the agreement ranged from 93% for VAS-A to 96% for VAS-distress (VAS-D). Interclass correlation coefficients ranged from 0.67 for VAS-C
