Intraoperative model

Preoperative pain in the operative area

Insert here the average pain during the week before operation in the breast, side of chest, axilla or upper arm on NRS scale from 0 to 10.

Body Mass Index

Choose between < 31 or ≥ 31 to indicate whether the body mass index of the patient is < 31 or ≥ 31.

Axillary operation

Choose between Sentinel Node Biopsy (SNB) or Axillary Lymph Node Dissection (ALND).

Probability of moderate-to-severe persistent pain

Less than 20% is considered low risk, 20-30% moderate risk and more than 30% high risk. These risk categories are first presented and validated in the accompanying study.

First postoperative day acute pain

Insert here the maximum first postoperative day pain in the breast, side of chest, axilla or upper arm on NRS scale from 0 to 10.
