Management of postoperative pain in lumbar spine surgery has not been protocolized in Mexico. Lumbar spine surgery (discectomy, laminectomy, fusion and instrumentation) is among the first six most painful surgeries. Adequate treatment of postoperative pain in this population should be guided with the identification of early risk factors for severe pain and factors associated with long-term functional response (visit https://becertain.shinyapps.io/lumbar_fusion_calculator), pre-medication and the establishment of an adequate analgesic approach according to the clinical characteristics of the patients will lead to early mobilization, decreasing the risk of pneumonia, ileus, pressure ulcers, in addition to accelerating hospital discharge, lower costs and increase the quality of care (visithttp://www.painoutmexico.com to get the full version of the article and recommendations) .
