Chronic Postsurgical Pain: Multivariate Prediction Model
Sponsor: Societa Italiana Anestesia Analgesia Rianimazione e Terapia Intensiva
Summary
The goal of this observational study is to identify the risk factors of Chronic Postoperative pain (or Chronic Post Surgery Pain - CPSP) three months after surgery and, subsequently. the development of a risk index to identify high-risk patients considering the multifactorial etiology of CPOP in adult patients undergoing any type of elective surgery.

Interventions
Chronic Post Surgery Pain (CPSP)
The outcome variable is the presence of CPSP assessed 3 months after surgery and defined as an average pain intensity of at least 3 on the NRS scale (11-point one-dimensional pain scale) in the last three days, and pain localized to the surgical field (or in the lesion area) projected into the innervation territory of a nerve located in this area or referred to a dermatome. Separate prediction models will be developed using data derived from surveys conducted at the relevant time points for the development of the risk index.
