Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Percentage of patients who are opiate-free [48 hours postoperatively]
Percentage of patients who are opiate-free at 48 hours postoperatively.
- Percentage of patients who are opiate-free [10-14 days postoperatively]
Percentage of patients who are opiate-free at 10-14 days postoperatively.
- Parents' postoperative pain measure (PPPM) scores [48 hours postoperatively]
15-item, yes/no behavioral checklist based on non-verbal pain cues children show following surgery. Scale is from 0 to 15, with higher scores denoting more severe pain. A score of 6+ has been validated as a threshold for a child experiencing clinically significant pain.
- Parents' postoperative pain measure (PPPM) scores [10-14 days postoperatively]
15-item, yes/no behavioral checklist based on non-verbal pain cues children show following surgery. Scale is from 0 to 15, with higher scores denoting more severe pain. A score of 6+ has been validated as a threshold for a child experiencing clinically significant pain.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Amount of opioid medication used post-discharge [10-14 days postoperatively]
Amount of opioid medication (in OMEQ) used post-discharge.
- Amount of opioid medication leftover [10-14 days postoperatively]
Amount of opioid medication (in OMEQ) leftover
- Cumulative incidence of complications [10-14 days postoperatively]
Cumulative incidence of complications related to local anesthetic systemic toxicity.
