The number lock key has been virtually replaced by separate navigational and numerical entry keypads. The SysRq key never had a function â it was created strictly for a future function that did not materialize. Many computer keyboards don't include a scroll lock key, although a few do, perhaps for nostalgic purposes.
The NPRS is an 11-point scale from 0-10. â0â = no pain. â10â = the most intense pain imaginable. Patients verbally select a value that is most in line with the intensity of pain that they have experienced in the last 24 hours. A written form is also frequently used with the numeric values of 0 â 10 written out.
All patients received an initial dose of 0.10 mg/kg of morphine. After 30 minutes, those randomized to the higher dose received 0.05 mg/kg of morphine, while the lower-dose group received placebo. Pain scores were assessed at baseline, 30 minutes, and 60 minutes using a standardized numeric pain scale (0 = no pain, 10 = worst pain possible).
