Official title
A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Single Center Study of IV Acetaminophen for the Treatment of Post-Operative Pain After Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Surgery (LRYGBP)
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGBP) is a common type of surgery in which length of stay and morbidity is intimately associated with post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and recovery of bowel function. Medications most commonly used to control for post-operative pain are opioid medications, whose well known adverse effects include PONV. Currently, no studied adequate alternative to opiates exists for mild-moderate pain relief without the aforementioned risks. The primary goal for this study is to evaluate the the administration of pre- and post-operative IV acetaminophen to determine if there is in an overall decrease in the use of opioid analgesics by patient controlled analgesia (PCA) and subsequent decrease in subjective PONV leading to sooner return of bowel function, enabling progression to oral intake and decrease in post-operative length of stay.
