Other: Multi-modal Opioid Sparing Pain Management Protocol
Registration Number
NCT04269109
Lead Sponsor
Prisma Health-Upstate
Brief Summary

The purpose of this research study is to compare the amount of morphine milligram equivalents consumed post operatively until discharge between the control cohort and intervention cohort.

Detailed Description

Retrospective data will be collected on patients admitted to Prisma Health-Upstate Greenville Memorial Hospital in the Cardiovascular Intensive Care Unit following cardiovascular surgery. They will be divided into two cohorts, a control cohort from September 1, 2018 - October 31, 2018 and an intervention cohort from March 1, 2019 - April 30, 2019. A study investigator will assess each participant's electronic medical record through the electronic medical record database - EPIC to determine eligibility per the protocol. Demographic information will be collected, including age, date of birth, race, sex, height, weight, and ethnicity. Extubation and reintubation status will be collected along with medical history, type of cardiovascular procedure, medications, length of stay, pain scores, complications, and labs.
