Key information

About this study

Pain management after shoulder surgery remains to be a major challenge. Reliance on a single agent (most commonly opioids) results in increased incidence of side effects. Multimodal pain management refers to the use of multiple drugs that target different components of pain pathway.

  • Age 18-80
  • Speaks and understands the English language
  • Have a phone number
  • Scheduled for shoulder arthroscopy

Treatment and study plan

multimodal perioperative pain protocol (MP3)

Combination Product

administration of gabapentionoid, acetaminophen, non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs around the clock in addition to the peripheral nerve block offered before surgery

Primary outcomes

  1. QOR-9

    Time frame: 24 hours

    quality of recovery score using the QOR-9 instrument: it is a 9 item questionnaire with each question scoring from 0,1,2 with a total highest possible score of 18

Secondary outcomes

  1. quality of pain management

    Time frame: 24 and 48 hours

    quality of pain management was measured using the revised american pain society patient oriented outcome questionnaire (APS-POQ-R). The questionnaire measures quality of pain management in 5 domains: 1- pain intensity 2- pain interference with activity and sleep 3- emotional side effects of uncontrolled pain ( affective scale). 4- patient perception of their pain management 5-side effects of pain treatment some questions answers are on a scale from 0-10. Ten is the maximum score and zero is the minimum score. other questions are listed as percentage with increments of 10% at a time (0%,10%, 20%, 30%..etc). each item/question is reported individually

  2. amount of opioids

    Time frame: 24, 48 and 72 hours after surgery

    amount of opioids used converted to mg equivalent of oxycodone

  3. QOR-9

    Time frame: at 48 hours and 72 hours

    quality of recovery score using the QOR-9 instrument: it is a 9 item questionnaire with each question scoring from 0,1,2 with a total highest possible score of 18
