1.	Pain (Aches) 03/01/2009 - "The hypothesis was that preoperative intra-articular pain management is superior to postoperative procedures. " 07/01/2006 - "Concomitant with these developments multimodal rehabilitation, which involves a revision of general postoperative care principles, improved pain relief with epidural analgesia and early oral nutrition and mobilization, has demonstrated greater improvements in recovery after open surgery, resulting in a median hospital stay of about 2-4 days. " 05/01/1999 - "CONCLUSIONS: Effective pain management can set the stage for a rehabilitational approach to postoperative care, which should lead to earlier recovery and improved outcomes." 09/01/2001 - "Future studies will show whether minimising complications, improving postoperative care and starting early adequate pain management will reduce the incidence of this problem." 08/01/2000 - "OBJECTIVES: The objectives of this study were to introduce the concept of relational coordination and to determine its impact on the quality of care, postoperative pain and functioning, and the length of stay for patients undergoing an elective surgical procedure.

2.	Wounds and Injuries (Trauma) 06/01/2008 - "PURPOSE: This study evaluated the efficacy of the HemCon Dental Dressing (HDD; HemCon Medical Technologies, Inc, Beaverton, OR) hemostatic oral wound dressing derived from the US military HemCon Bandage combat wound dressing and whether early hemostasis affects postoperative care and surgical healing outcomes following oral surgical procedures. " 05/01/1997 - "The modifications in the second series consisted of the following: (1) Improved patient selection; (2) minimal tissue trauma; (3) intact orbital septum; (4) lengthening of the septum; (5) secure midfacial suspension; (6) three-step lateral canthoplasty; (7) limited resection of skin; and (8) specific postoperative care. " 07/01/2009 - "PURPOSE: To reach a consensus opinion in the administration of thromboprophylaxis in both preoperative and postoperative care in the settings of spinal trauma and SCI. STUDY DESIGN: A live survey on thromboprophylaxis after spinal surgery in the setting of trauma was conducted at a meeting among spine trauma surgeons. " 01/01/2009 - "These choices can affect wound healing, wound strength, and wound integrity, and postoperative care. " 09/01/2008 - "CONCLUSION: Closed simple drains are not inferior to suction drains in mastectomy wounds and, considering the cost saving and simplicity of postoperative care, they are preferable to suction drains."

" 11/01/2007 - "CONCLUSION: Surgical treatment of neoplasms of the hypopharynx and cervical oesophagus is technically demanding and involves careful postoperative care to manage complications. " 10/01/2007 - "Evidence is scarce about the influence of comorbidity on outcome of surgery, whereas this information is highly relevant for estimating the surgical risk of cancer patients, and for optimising pre-, peri- and postoperative care.
