Overview

Brief Summary

This study will address the gaps in research of non-opioid postoperative pain management for prostatectomies.

Detailed Description

This study will conduct a randomized control double-blind clinical trial to evaluate an opioid versus a non-opioid pathway of gabapentin, ketorolac, and acetaminophen in treating postoperative pain following robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP).

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Amount of medication used

Time Frame: Time of Discharge postoperative up to Day 3

measure opioid utilization by surveying patients on their usage while collecting their pain scores - Opioid oral morphine milligram equivalents (OMEQ) will be measured

Visual Analogue Pain Score

Time Frame: Day 7

Pain scores will be collected using the Visual Analogue Pain Score and measured on a scale of 0-10, with 0 being no pain 10 being the worst pain imaginable

Opioid-Related Symptom Distress Scale (ORSDS)

Time Frame: Day 7

4-point scale that evaluates 12 symptoms in 3 symptom categories including frequency, severity, and bothersomeness. The ORSDS may be used to calculate a symptom-specific score, which is the average of the 3 symptom distress dimensions and range from 0 to 4. The composite ORSDS score is the mean of all 12 symptom-specific scores. Composite ORSDS scores range from 0 to 4.
