C-reactive Protein Level on Postoperative Day One is Associated with Chronic Postsurgical Pain After Mastectomy
2018
Background
C-reactive protein (CRP) is an acute phase reactant released in response to inflammation or tissue injury. Inflammation is one of the pathogenic factors related to transition from acute postsurgical pain (APSP) to chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP). Although several risk factors are reportedly associated with CPSP, the effects of CRP levels on CPSP have not been examined.
