Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Following outpatient orthopaedic surgery, adequate pain control is imperative both for patient satisfaction and for improved recovery and rehabilitation. Opioids are frequently utilized for postoperative pain control, however they can be addictive and are known to have many deleterious effects. Recent studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of a wide variety of multi-modal postoperative pain regimens in providing adequate pain control while also decreasing opioid usage. However, the most effective multi-modal pain regimen for postoperative pain control remains unclear. This prospective, randomized study intends to investigate the efficacy of a multi-modal postoperative pain regimen compared to a traditional opioid-only pain regimen following elective outpatient orthopaedic surgery of the hand, wrist, foot, or ankle.

Drug: OxyCODONE 5 mg Oral Tablet
Oxycodone will be given every 4 hours as needed for 2 weeks after surgery

Active Comparator: Oxycodone+ Naproxen/Acetaminophen (Study Group)

each patient will receive oxycodone plus acetaminophen and naproxen for 2 weeks after surgery

Drug: OxyCODONE 5 mg Oral Tablet
Oxycodone will be given every 4 hours as needed for 2 weeks after surgery

Drug: Acetaminophen 500Mg Tab
Acetaminophen will be taken every 4 hours for 2 weeks after surgery

Drug: Naproxen 500 Mg
Naproxen will be taken every 12 hours for 2 weeks after surgery

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Postoperative Pain [14 days]

    With the use of an 11 point numeric rating scale (NRS) daily satisfaction with their pain regimen, patients pain level and medication usage will be recorded.
