Official title
Use of Single-Dose Oral Methadone for Pain Management in Outpatient Arthroscopic Hip and Knee Procedures
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if oral methadone given before surgery works to minimize post-operative pain and opioid usage. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does oral methadone improve post-operative pain scores as compared to standard treatment? Does oral methadone lead to reduced use of post-operative and post-discharge opioid usage as compared to the current standard treatment? Researchers will compare oral methadone to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to assess the questions above. Participants will: Receive either oral methadone or a look-alike placebo before surgery Receive standard intraoperative and immediate post-operative pain control at the anesthesiologist's discretion Be asked about their pain levels in the recovery area Keep a diary of pain and opioid usage over the first 2 days after surgery
