Primary outcomes

  1. Change in Pain Score

    Time frame: 1 day post-operatively, 14 days post-operatively

    The change in pain score measured using a visual analog scale (VAS) to rate pain on a scale 0-10; 0=no pain to 10=worst possible pain with higher scores indicating worsening pain.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change in Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Pain Interference Score

    Time frame: Baseline; 14 days post operatively

    The PROMIS Pain Interference Score is a 6-item patient-reported measure assessing how pain disrupts daily activities. Responses are scored on a 5-point Likert scale (1= Not at all to 5= very much). Each item is scored individually, and the raw scores are summed to produce a total score. The total raw score is then converted to a T-score which standardizes the score with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10 based on the general population. Higher T-scores indicate greater interference.

  2. Change in Opioid Consumption

    Time frame: Day 1 Post-Operatively; Day 14 Post-Operatively

    The change in opioid consumption from day 1 post-operative to day 14 post-operative in the opioid arm expressed in morphine milligram equivalents (MME).
