Reducing postoperative pain leads to increased patient comfort and facilitates speedy recovery and discharge from the hospital following surgery. The focus of controlling postoperative pain has gradually shifted from postoperative management to intraoperative management. The investigators believe that this study is a unique opportunity to assess the adequacy of intraoperative analgesia, allowing for immediate administration of the appropriate opioid analgesics. The purpose of this research is to bring to light the applicability of facial electromyography as an intraoperative solution to postoperative pain management.
