Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Response - NO
Brief Summary   It is a  prospective,comparative study
Sample 
After routine pre-operative investigations and history, written
informed consent will be taken. The method of analgesia will be
decided by a computer generated list. On the day of
surgery, pain, nausea and vomiting will be assessed. The
physiotherapist will assess the muscle strength, pain at rest and post
physiotherapy at 24hrs and 48 hrs using our pre-designed case
record forms. Muscle strength will be assessed using Manual muscle
testing scale and pain using the VAS score
Total opiod requirement in 48hrs will be recorded.
