Values are expressed as Mean ± Standard Deviation (SD). p-values are generated using Student t-test for the comparison between centralized and partially centralized patients.
p<0.001 for all comparisons between Anticipated pain Vs Actual Reported Pain among complete centralized and partially centralized patients by paired t-test.
