About this study

Official title: Preemptive Acetaminophen for Postoperative Pain Control Following Minimally Invasive Hysterectomy: a Randomized Control Trial

This study is investigating whether administration of acetaminophen the day before surgery improves post operative pain following minimally invasive hysterectomy. Patients will receive either acetaminophen or placebo to take twice per day the day prior to their scheduled surgery. The morning of surgery all participants will receive oral acetaminophen at least 30 minutes prior to surgery. The investigators will examine whether there is a difference in post operative pain between the two groups.

What is being measured

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

  1. Post-operative opioid use

    The total amount of opiate consumption in the immediate postoperative period will be recorded. Per standard protocol, patient's will be ordered for pain medication to receive on an as needed basis. The amount of both oral and IV opioids consumed by the patient will be converted to total morphine equivalents. As such, post operative opioid use will be used as a proxy for degree of post operative pain.

    Measured: 4 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Acetaminophen in people with Post Operative Pain, run by Montefiore Medical Center 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 9 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Aug 2022. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Post-operative opioid use (time frame: 4 hours). 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 18 Aug 2022.
