The goal of this before and after study is to measure the effectiveness of a home analgesia protocol after outpatient surgery in a tertiary hospital. The main question it aims to answer is: \- Measure the impact of the protocol on the proportion of patients with a VAS greater than 3/10 on day one and who did not take the analgesics. The participants are divided into two groups. The control group leaves the hospital with instructions and prescriptions. The experimental group leaves the hospital with instructions, analgesics for a maximum of two days with detailed dosages and an explanatory booklet on postoperative pain.
