Multimodal Analgesia With Acetaminophen vs. Narcotics Alone After Hip Arthroscopy

Completed · Phase 4

Conditions studied: Hip Arthroscopy

In brief

The purpose of this proposed study is to evaluate the efficacy of a multimodal approach to analgesia for patient's pain after hip arthroscopy and to also assess if this new approach will result in a reduction in post-operative narcotic use. This study is a single-center, randomized prospective study comparing post-operative pain scores and narcotic consumption between individuals receiving acetaminophen along with a reduced quantity of Percocet (to be used as needed for breakthrough pain) and individuals receiving Percocet only. Both pain management options are considered to be standard of care. Both cohorts will receive aspirin for DVT prophylaxis and celecoxib for heterotopic ossification prophylaxis. The primary objective of the study are to compare patients' narcotic consumption and reported pain following arthroscopic hip surgery, and determine if acetaminophen can provide adequate pain relief compared to a narcotic medication.
