Sažetak
The objective of this study was to compare postoperative pain, as assessed by multiple objective and subjective methods, after Tibial Tuberosity Advancement and Modified Retinacular Imbrication Technique, procedures that differ significantly in the extent of the operative trauma. We compared the preoperative, 2, 6, 10, 20, 44 and 68-hour postoperative results of the University of Melbourne Pain Scale and visual analogue scale with the dynamics of the physiologic, biochemical and behavioural parameters. The integration of various parameters increases the objectivity of pain assessment. The invasiveness of the surgical technique does not necessarily correlate with the level of postoperative pain.
