Clinical Trial Summary

Proposed is a demonstration project to characterize the immediate, short-term and long-term pain and other post-operative outcomes of 60, self-selected breast (n=20), caesarian-section (n=20) and abdominal (n=20) surgical patients who receive opioid-sparing, multimodal anesthesia and pain management care as guided by the ComfortSafe Pyramid.


Clinical Trial Description

In well-characterized samples of patients undergoing breast, caesarian-section or abdominal surgery, the efficacy and safety of perioperative pain care organized by ComfortSafe Pyramid approaches will be evaluated. In addition, patient satisfaction with this care will be evaluated. Post-operative pain and opioid-related outcomes will be operationalized using standardized symptom (nausea, vomiting, respiratory depression, confusion, acute and chronic pain) severity measures, prn analgesic (opioid and non-opioid) consumption, and urine toxicology. Together, these original data will have important implications for the clinical management of post-operative pain utilizing opioid-sparing and multi-modal approaches.

A total of 60 self-selected surgical patients will be enrolled in the study, 20 undergoing breast surgery, 20 undergoing caesarian-section, and 20 undergoing abdominal surgery. All will receive anesthesia and pain management consistent with the ComfortSafe Pyramid which emphasizes opioid-sparing and multimodal approaches. Side and adverse opioid-related effects and post-operative pain will be assessed at regular intervals during the immediate post-operative period (24 hours). To evaluate the incidence of opioid misuse/abuse and the development of chronic pain, an opioid use history, urine toxicology and Brief Pain Inventory will be collected at 1 month, 3 months and 6 months following discharge. Patient satisfaction measures will be obtained at discharge, 1 month, and 3 months follow-up timepoint. ;
