Clinical Trial Summary

There are two options for postoperative pain management: opioid and non-opioid analgesia. Pain outcomes will be compared in patients undergoing ureteroscopy and percutaneous nephrolithotomy by randomly administering opioid and non-opioid analgesia.


Clinical Trial Description

Perioperative pain is often managed by opioids. However, post surgical pain management with opioids can often lead to long-term opioid use; additionally, opioids can cause unwanted side effects including respiratory depression that can lead to hypoxia and respiratory arrest, as well as nausea, vomiting, pruritus, ileus, and constipation. As an alternative to opioid perioperative pain management, non-opioid analgesia has been proven to be as effective as opioid management in acute pain. Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) and acetaminophen are often utilized as alternatives to opioid analgesia, and have an increased efficacy when combined. Both NSAIDS and acetaminophen have been proven to decrease opioid requirements and have minimized opiate-induced adverse events. In this randomized clinical trial, pain outcomes after ureteroscopy and percutaneous nephrolithotomy will be investigated in patients who are treated with opioids versus a non-opioid regimen of ketorolac and acetaminophen. Percutaneous nephrolithotomy and ureteroscopy are minimally invasive surgical techniques to surgically remove kidney stones. This trial will seek to determine whether non-opioid therapy is noninferior to opioid therapy in the determination of pain intensity as measured by an 11-point numeric rating scale, in which 0 indicates no pain and 10 indicates the worst possible pain, one week after the surgery by telephone call. ;
