Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Total Morphine Equivalents (TME) throughout hospitalization72 hours

Total Morphine Equivalents is a standardized way of measuring opioids that patients receive over time. This will be calculated by a member of the research study team utilizing a standardized formula under pharmacies direction. The Medication Administration Record (MAR) will be reviewed to gather administered doses of opioids throughout the participants hospital stay.
