This strategy was created to cover the "peri-operative" portion of a routine (non-exhaustive) search for articles with a major focus on peri-operative pain management. It's just an initial stab at the peri-operative concept. Additional procedure names could be added to the yellow highlighted section; the proximity operators could be handled differently; terms for operating room personnel, anesthetists, surgeons, etc could be added, etc, etc.
