ObjectiveTo follow-up pain after discharged in patients with liver resection and provide a reference to carry out the continued pain treatment outside the hospital. MethodsPost-discharged pain follow-up in patients with liver resection in our department from December 1, 2014 to April 30, 2015 were conducted, and the pain incidence, characteristics and level on 14 days, 1 month, 2 months, and 3 months after operation were understanded. Results①The pain score of patients on 14 days after operation was 0-3 points, which was mild pain. In 2 months after operation, 24 patients still had pain, the incidence was 20.69% (24/116). In 3 months after operation, the pain incidence was 18.97% (22/116).②There was no significant difference in the pain incidence between men and women in 2 months after operation (P > 0.05). In 3 months after operation, the pain incidence of male and female patients was 13.04% (9/69) and 27.66% (13/47), respectively, the pain incidence of female was significantly higher than men (P < 0.05).③The postoperative pain score and incidence in patients more than 60 years old were lower than that in patients less than 60 years old, but the score and the incidence of postoperative pain in patients with different ages were not statistically significant (P > 0.05).④In chronic pain patients, 81.82% (18/22) were visceral pain, 18.182% (4/22) were skin tingling or numbness. ConclusionWe should focus on the continued pain treatment outside the hospital in patients with hepatic resection, make efforts to alleviate pain, and improve the postoperative quality of life.
