简要总结
Oxycodone and Hydrocodone are the most commonly used oral opioid analgesics in the emergency department and in outpatient settings. Both medications have a very high potential for abuse due to the prominence of the euphoric effect (abuse liability) and relative lack of "bad "or "negative" effects (likeability). The highly addictive properties of these medications lead to recurrent ED visits for repetitive dosing and prescribing that may lead to abuse, misuse, development of dependence and addiction, and, most importantly, death due to overdose. In contrast, several research papers demonstrated that administration of MSIR results in similar analgesic efficacy to Oxycodone and Hydrocodone but with significantly less euphoric and rewarding associated effects. In addition, consumption of large doses of MSIR leads to dysphoria, vomiting and sedation ("negative effects"). To the investigators' knowledge, there are no randomized controlled trials in the ED that directly compared analgesic efficacy of MSIR to Percocet
详细描述
The investigators' hypothesis is that MSIR coupled with acetaminophen will have similar if not better analgesic efficacy at 30 minutes and 1 hour than oxycodone coupled with acetaminophen for acute painful conditions in the emergency department.
This study will be a double-blind randomized clinical trial evaluation analgesic efficacy of orally administered MISIR+acetaminophen in comparison to Oxycodone+acetaminophen for treating pain. Patients will be enrolled from a single ED in a tertiary academic center.
Patients based on inclusion criteria will be randomized to receive either 1 tablet of 15mg PO morphine sulfate immediate release combined with 650mg of Acetaminophen or 1 tablet 10mg Oxycodone combined with 650 mg Acetaminophen. All drugs will be crushed and given to the subjects in blinded fashion. Patients, physicians, nurses and research assistants will be blinded to drug assignment throughout the study. Medication will be prepared by on site pharmacist.
Pain will be reassessed at both 30 minutes, 45 minutes and 1 hour with the primary outcome of reduction in pain score by 1.3 points at 60 minutes. Assuming a 1.7 pain difference is minimally significant clinically with standard deviation of 3.0 (based on a previous study of morphine analgesia), a minimum of 50 patients per group will be needed for 80% power with alpha equal to 0.05.
Secondary outcomes will include any reported adverse effects; the requirement of additional analgesia.
