An Analysis of the Efficacy of a Pre-Emptive Multimodal Pain Regimen in Reducing Acute Post-Operative Pain and Narcotic Pain Medication Requirements in Spine Surgery
- Conditions
- Pain, PostoperativeSpine Injuries and DisordersNarcotic Use
- Interventions
- Drug: Pre-op Multimodal analgesia (MMA) regimen + standard post-op oxycodone
- Registration Number
- NCT04522206
- Lead Sponsor
- NYU Langone Health
- Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to investigate the hypothesis that multimodal pain regimen (consisting of acetaminophen, celecoxib, gabapentin, and oxycodone) administered pre-operatively before elective spine surgery significantly decreases acute pain post-operatively as well as decreasing requirements of post-op opioids for pain control in PACU as compared to patients undergoing elective spine surgery without a pre-operative pain regimen.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for Pain 24 hours VAS is a tool widely used to measure pain. A patient is asked to indicate his/her perceived pain intensity (most commonly) along a 100 mm horizontal line, and this rating is then measured from the left edge (=VAS score). The total score range is 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain imaginable); the higher the score, the worse the pain.
Opioid Sparing and Rescue Time 24 hours Time interval from patient extubation to time when pain medication is first demanded in the PACU
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Length of Stay in Hospital Up to 12 days
