Postoperative pain is still a challenge for anesthesiologist. Patient controlled analgesia is an effective method for postoperative pain management. However, most of the patient can not use the device properly. The important cause of inabilities about device usage is insufficient information.In the patient information, visual, oral or written communication methods can be chosen. However, which method is suitable for our patient group is not clear.This study is aimed to show the effect of information method on properly usage of the patient controlled analgesia(PCA) device
