About this study
Official title: Traditional vs. Nonopioid Analgesia After Arthroscopic Meniscus Surgery
This is a randomized, single blinded, standard of care controlled clinical trial. This project aims to compare postoperative pain control in patients in two treatment arms of arthroscopic meniscus surgery: a treatment group given a non-opioid pain control regimen, and a standard of care control group given standard opioid pain control regimen
Read the detailed description
Study Design: This is a randomized, single blinded, standard of care-controlled clinical trial. All adult patients over eighteen desiring arthroscopic meniscus surgery will be eligible. Nonnarcotic postoperative pain control regimen described below were chosen based on previous studies in fracture care and joint arthroplasty.
Patients will be consented and recruited. Once participation has been determined and consent obtained, the names of participating patients will be provided to the research pharmacy. Patients will be randomized with a computer-generated table in 2 patient blocks by the research pharmacy. Patients postoperative analgesia will be divided into one of the following 2 treatment arms: 1) A novel nonopioid pain protocol or 2) traditional narcotic pain analgesia
Primary endpoints is reduction in pain as measured by Visual Analog Score and Patient Reported Outcome Measurement Informatics Systems. The endpoints will be collected at each post-operative day using a journal. Moreover, endpoints will be collected at the patient's first post-operative appointment. These appointments are scheduled within one-week of the index procedure.
Statistical Analysis: All continuous data will be analyzed using independent 2-group t tests and reported as means ± standard deviations. Categorical data will be compared between the 2 groups using chi-square tests and reported as counts and percentages. A preliminary test to confirm the quality of variances will be conducted prior to utilizing the t test to confirm the appropriate statistical analysis. Nonparametric equivalents Wilcoxon rank-sum and Fisher exact tests will be used as needed for nonnormal distributions and low variable numbers, respectively. A multivariable regression analysis was performed to assess for potential confounding demographic variables.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Pain Levels
Patients record pain levels every 3 hours using Visual analog scales for 10 days post-operatively. Average daily pain was calculated for each patient. Higher values portend worse control.
Measured: 10 days post-operatively
Patient Reported Outcome Measurement Information System
Patient Reported Outcome Measurement Information System - Pain Interference (PROMIS PI) scores collected nightly until study completion. Average PROMIS PI values calculated nightly. A higher score indicates more pain interference.
Measured: 10 days post-operatively

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Early Phase 1 study testing Celecoxib, Hydrocodon/Acetaminophen and Ketorolac in people with Meniscus Disorder and Narcotic Use, run by Henry Ford Health System at 1 site in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Dec 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Pain Levels (time frame: 10 days post-operatively). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Dec 2023.
