description Objective. To test validity of formalized Analgesiс Assessment Scale (AAS) by examining the correlation of its parameters (gradations) with other parameters characterizing pain intensity during the treatment, and to assess the adequacy of conducted analgesia in patients with spinal tuberculosis by taking into account AAS gradations. Material and Methods. The study was performed in a prospective cohort of 15 consecutive patients who underwent similar elective spine surgery for tuberculous spondylitis. Postoperatively, all patients received systemic analgesia with parenteral narcotic and non-narcotic analgesics, depending on pain intensity subjectively assessed by patients using VAS. The protocol for postoperative analgesia included records of pain intensity assessed by VAS, systolic and diastolic blood pressure (BPsist and BPdiast), heart rate, and the AAS gradations of analgesic consumption. Results. An analysis of the correlation between AAS and other variables characterizing pain intensity in the postoperative period showed a strong positive association of AAS with VAS (r = 0,567; P < 0,05) and ADsist (r = 0.340; P < 0.05) variables, which confirms usability of each of these parameters in the assessment of pain intensity. Conclusion. The AAS tested in a pilot study on the cohort of 15 consecutive patients operated for spinal disorders proved its effectiveness in pain intensity assessment, pain therapy, and convenience of analgesics accounting.
