Acetaminophen Given Per Os and Intravenous in Sinus Surgery

Status unconfirmed · Phase 3

Conditions studied: Acetaminophen

In brief

The primary objective of this study is to investigate the Visual Analog Score (VAS) for pain within the post-operative setting and determine if there is a statistically significant difference between the VAS for PO or IV acetaminophen. It is expected that in doing so the investigators can produce the maximal amount of pain relief after surgery while making conscientious monetary decisions.
