Clinical Trial Summary

In previous studies the investigators have seen that the severity of pain one day after cesarean delivery can predict the presence of pain and depression 2 months later. The investigators believe those at risk for severe acute post-partum pain can be identified, and medical interventions can be tailored to manage postoperative pain more effectively.


Clinical Trial Description

This study is randomizing patients into 2 different groups and seeing if by altering our pain management with this group of patients their acute 24 hour evoked pain is less than anticipated; and the incidence of persistent pain and depression when contacted 2 months after delivery is decreased. This study is designed to see if these additional interventions would prove effective for patients at risk of having high pain level after cesarean surgery. ;
