In our study, assessment of pain was done using Hannallah's
Objective Pain Score at different time intervals postoperatively for up to 24 hours.
In his lectures, Nelson Hendler, who developed one of the best

The consistent reference to challenging pain assessment in pediatric patients with TBI may indicate a need for more standardized and
objective pain assessments through improvement of assessment tools.
Pain score was assessed by
Objective pain scale score (OPS) using; Blood pressure, Crying, Movements, Agitation, and Verbalization of pain (Table 1).
Postoperative analgesia, sedation and motor block were evaluated with modified
objective pain scale, three-point scale and modified Bromage scale respectively.
