SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 24-hours post operatively and 48-hours post operatively

Subjective pain with ambulation reported by participants using visual analogue scales (VAS) ranging from 0-100 at the 24-hour post-op time point and 48-hour post-op time point. The lower the number, the better the outcome.
