Summary

To help curb the use of opioid medications following orthopedic surgery investigators have developed a new multi-modal pain pathway. Investigators aim to compare this regimen with and without the inclusion of opioid medications. This study will be performed in a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled fashion in patients undergoing primary total knee or total hip arthroplasty. Investigators hypothesize that the opioid devoid pathway will show equivalent pain scores to the pathway that includes opioids while also having less constipation, nausea, and vomiting following surgery. If successful, this would create a dramatic decrease in opioid consumption following orthopedic surgery while still providing appropriate pain relief to patients.

Conditions

  • Total Knee Arthroplasty

Interventions

DRUG

Oxycodone

The primary endpoint will be pain scores, calculated by the Visual Analog Scale. This score will be collected daily during the hospital examination and by phone surveys for two weeks following discharge. Investigators hypothesize that the non-opioid pain regimen will provide equivalent relief as compared to the opioid regimen.

DRUG

Placebo Oral Tablet

The primary endpoint will be pain scores, calculated by the Visual Analog Scale. This score will be collected daily during the hospital examination and by phone surveys for two weeks following discharge. Investigators hypothesize that the non-opioid pain regimen will provide equivalent relief as compared to the opioid regimen.
