Summary

A large number of patients experience significant pain after surgery, and more patients report pain after discharge from hospital than before. This issue has been observed in patients who receive peripheral nerve blocks, the effects of which often wear off after discharge. There are numerous barriers to the effective control of pain away from the direct supervision of medical professionals, and personalized management strategies are necessary in order to overcome these barriers. The first step of adequate pain management is accurate pain assessment. Therefore, this study aims to validate a smartphone-based pain assessment tool that patients can access at home.
