What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ibuprofen 600 mgOther

    MRN ending in an EVEN # will receive ibuprofen 600 mg to be taken every 8 hours (TID) as needed (PRN) and oxycodone/acetaminophen (Percocet) 5 mg/325 mg for pain that is not adequately controlled by the ibuprofen.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Score

    Scale consisting of a drawn line from 0 to 100 - the patient will be asked to mark where they believe their pain is (100 being worse pain).

    Measured: 30 Minutes, 1 Hour Post Surgery, 2 Hours Post Surgery, 3 Hours Post Surgery, 4 Hours Post Surgery

  2. Change in Verbal Rating Scale (VRS)

    Consisting of 4 points (0 = no pain, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, and 3 = severe)

    Measured: 30 Minutes, 1 Hour Post Surgery, 2 Hours Post Surgery, 3 Hours Post Surgery, 4 Hours Post Surgery

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Score (time frame: 30 Minutes, 1 Hour Post Surgery, 2 Hours Post Surgery, 3 Hours Post Surgery, 4 Hours Post Surgery). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
