Detailed Description
Background and Significance:
Opioid-based analgesia has been a cornerstone of patient care in the setting of acute pain for the last century and has undergone logarithmic increase over the past twenty years. Unfortunately, the rise in utilization has brought with it a rise in opioid-induced side effects. These include constipation, nausea/vomiting, hyperalgesia, delirium, addiction/withdrawal (with 67% of those prescribed a long-term opioid program still on opioids at an average of 4.8 years of follow-up), and in some cases even respiratory depression/death. Patient expectations of opioid-based pain medication has driven a rapid rise in outpatient opioid prescriptions including both short and long-acting opioids. These prescriptions have in turn become a source of significant mortality in the United States, with nearly 20,000 deaths due to opioid overdose in 2014 alone.
There have been momentous efforts made in identifying synergistic compounds to use for acute pain management in the perioperative time period to begin to minimize the opioid requirement for pain control. These studies have focused on nerve modulation with gabapentinoids, intravenous and local administration of sodium-channel blockers such as lidocaine and bupivacaine, and even increased interest in non-steroidal anti-inflammatories and acetaminophen. At this time, no study has looked at the possibility of utilizing a multi-modal acute post-surgical pain control pathway that did not include some form of opioid medication for the general population.
Arthroplasty continues to be a dominant procedure in the orthopaedic armamentarium and accounts for well over a million surgeries done in the United States per year. With the ability to utilize targeted nerve blocks by anesthesia, and the increasing data showing efficacy of multi-modal therapy for acute pain, we propose a patient care pathway that is completely free of all opioid-based medications. From the time that patients are checked in until the time the patient follows up in clinic, they will utilize a pathway designed to eliminate pain and opioid-related side effects following shoulder arthroplasty. Our hope is that a well-designed pathway for total shoulder arthroplasty can quickly be modeled for other surgical procedures in an attempt to minimize the negative effects of opioid utilization both acutely and on a societal level.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
No Intervention: Observational The observational treatment group will not have any changes from your surgeon's normal pain management process. Anesthesia will be utilized in a routine fashion with all routine perioperative medications. You will be discharged on routine postoperative medications including opioids, NSAIDS, and any other modalities typically used by the treating surgeon. |
|
Active Comparator: Non-Opioid Intervention Oral dose of both gabapentin and celecoxib (toradol if sulfa allergy) in the preop area. US-guided interscalene regional block without the aid of opioid co-medication. Intra-op management by anesthesia with non-opioid modalities but should include one dose of IV acetaminophen during the procedure. Anesthetic modalities will include, but not limited to, regional block, propofol, IV lidocaine, rocuronium/vecuronium, and sevoflurane/desflurane. If the attending anesthesiologist deems it necessary to dose with opioids during procedure, it will be recorded and reported. Liposomal bupivacaine will be injected into the peri-articular soft tissues as an adjunct to the block. Post Op, cryotherapy, gabapentin, toradol. Toradol will transition to celecoxib for the duration of the hospitalization (or meloxicam for patients with sulfa allergy). As needed medications will include both oral and IV acetaminophen, as well as up to an additional 15mg of toradol per 6hr, depending on Cr clearance. |

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Post Op Pain [24 hours]
Pain at patient discharge or 24-hours, whichever comes first - measured on a 0 (no pain) -10 (worst possible pain) numeric rating scale (NRS). A score of 0(no pain) is preferable to 10(worst possible pain)
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Additional Post Op Pain [6hrs, 12hrs, 2weeks, 2 months]
post-operative pain: measured on a 0 (no pain) -10 (worst) numeric rating scale (NRS) at 6hrs, 12hrs, 2 weeks, and 2 months. A score of 0(no pain) is preferable to 10(worst possible pain)
- Nausea [2 Weeks]
rate of nausea
- Constipation [2 Weeks]
rate of constipation
- Falls [2 Weeks]
rate of falls
- Morphine Use [In-hospital Stay]
Morphine milli-equivalents In-hospital post-operative. Continuous scale of MME, no defined better/worse. Measured as number and dose of medications taken. For example, if the patient received an opioid, the drug and dose was recorded and converted to MME. A time frame of when to assess opioid use in-hospital post-operative was not used but was a continuous monitor for rescue opioid from in-hospital post-operative through discharge.
- Pain Satisfaction [2 Weeks]
Satisfaction with overall pain using Numeric Pain Rating (NRS) scale. yes, no. No being better than yes.
- ASES [2 Weeks]
American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) Shoulder Score for pain and function. Range 0-100. Low score = worse shoulder condition. Function, disability, and pain subscores (all ranges 0-50), and are summed for total ASES score.
- Simple Shoulder Test [2 Weeks]
Simple Shoulder Test (SST) activity score. Range 0-12. 0 = worse activity score.
- Veterans RAND 12 Item Health Survey (VR-12©) Physical Health Subscore, and Mental Health Subscore [2 Weeks]
quality of life using VR-12 subscores. Physical Health (PCS) subscore and Mental Health (MCS) subscore, not summed. Range reported in weighted units. Physical Health subscore: 1 point increase in PCS is associated with 6% lower total health care expenditures, 5% lower pharmacy expenditures, 9% lower rate of hospital inpatient visits, 4% lower rate of medical provider visits, 5% lower rate of hospital outpatient visits. Mental Health sub score a 1 point increase in MCS is associated with 7% lower total health care expenditures, 4% lower pharmacy expenditures, 15% lower rate of hospital inpatient visits, and 4% lower rate of medical provider visits.

Study Results
Participant Flow
Recruitment Details | Patients were identified in clinic by the surgeon performing the shoulder arthroplasty. The surgeon introduced the concept of opioid-free arthroplasty with the patients, who then chose whether to follow the traditional or opioid-free pathway. The surgeon then notified the study coordinator of the patient's decision and patients were consented. |

Anesthesia will be utilized in a routine fashion with all routine perioperative medications. You will be discharged on routine postoperative medications including opioids, NSAIDS, and any other modalities typically used by the treating surgeon. | Oral dose of gabapentin and celecoxib (toradol if sulfa allergy) in the preop area. US-guided interscalene regional block without aid of opioid co-medication. Intra-op management by anesthesia with non-opioid modalities but included one dose of IV acetaminophen during procedure. Anesthetic modalities include, but not limited to, regional block, propofol, IV lidocaine, rocuronium/vecuronium, and sevoflurane/desflurane. If the attending anesthesiologist deems it necessary to dose with opioids during procedure, it will be recorded and reported. Liposomal bupivacaine will be injected into the peri-articular soft tissues as an adjunct to the block. Post Op, cryotherapy, gabapentin, toradol. Toradol will transition to celecoxib for the duration of the hospitalization (or meloxicam for patients with sulfa allergy). PRN medications will include acetaminophen, as well as up to an additional 15mg of toradol per 6hr, depending on Cr clearance. |

US-guided interscalene regional block without aid of opioid co-medication. Intra-op management by anesthesia with non-opioid modalities but included one dose of IV acetaminophen during procedure. Anesthetic modalities include, but not limited to, regional block, propofol, IV lidocaine, rocuronium/vecuronium, and sevoflurane/desflurane. If the attending anesthesiologist deems it necessary to dose with opioids during procedure, it will be recorded and reported. Liposomal bupivacaine will be injected into the peri-articular soft tissues as an adjunct to the block. Post Op, cryotherapy, gabapentin, toradol. Toradol will transition to celecoxib for the duration of the hospitalization (or meloxicam for patients with sulfa allergy). PRN medications will include acetaminophen, as well as up to an additional 15mg of toradol per 6hr, depending on Cr clearance. | ||
