What participants receive

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

  • Opioid calculatorOther

    Our research group previously created an Opioid calculator that can be used to predict the number of opioids needed post-operatively based on patient health history and characteristics.

  • Standard opioid prescriptionOther

    Patients will receive prescription for post-operative opioids based on what the attending surgeon usually provides.

Study groups in NCT05571072
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Standard Opioid PrescriptionActive comparatorPatients will be given a prescription for opioid pain medication to use for acute postoperative pain as would be typical for the attending surgeon performing the surgery.
Receives: Other: Standard opioid prescription
Opioid Calculator PrescriptionExperimentalPatients will be a given a prescription for opioid pain medication based on the opioid calculator.
Receives: Other: Opioid calculator

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in pain scores measured by team-created pain questionnaires

    Pain questionnaire is a 2 question survey that ask patients to rate pain on scale of 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain) immediately post-op and current. Baseline will be calculated by asking patient's expected post-op pain score.

    Measured: baseline, 1 week post-op, 2 weeks post-op

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change in satisfaction scores measured by team-created questionnaire

    Questionnaire is a 1 question survey that ask patients to rate their satisfaction with their pain control on scale of 0 (totally unsatisfied) to 10 (totally satisfied) immediately post-op and current.

    Measured: 1 week post-op, 2 weeks post-op

  2. Change in number of opioid tablets remaining measured by team-created questionnaire

    Patients will be asked the number of tablets remaining from their opioid prescriptions.

    Measured: 1 week post-op, 2 weeks post-op

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Opioid calculator and Standard opioid prescription in people with Post Operative Pain and Opioid Use, run by David Sheyn 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 26 inclusion and 5 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 21 Jun 2024. 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.

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?

Change in pain scores measured by team-created pain questionnaires (time frame: baseline, 1 week post-op, 2 weeks post-op). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05571072, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 21 Jun 2024.
