Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The purpose of the study is to document the use of fentanyl HCl 40 mcg system under routine conditions and obtain a more comprehensive understanding of the safety of the system and complications that may not be spontaneously reported.

    Patients will receive treatment and care according to the standard practices at the study center, including: treatment choice, pain management set-up, and operation.

Sampling MethodProbability Sample
Study Population

Approximately 3,000 patients who have scheduled surgery and need treatment of acute moderate to severe post-operative pain and are treated with fentanyl HCl 40 mcg system in the hospital setting will be evaluated. In addition, a group of approximately 1,500 patients treated with opioid intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (IV PCA) will be matched to fentanyl HCl 40 mcg system patients with respect to (1) country (match will first be sought within the same research center, and extended to patients in the same country if no match is found), (2) pre-surgical physical condition and (3) surgery risk (high risk versus low risk). Patients at multiple research centers in multiple countries will be included.

You may qualify if:

  • Adult patients
  • Planned surgery
  • Planned use of fentanyl HCl 40 mcg system or IV Patient-Controlled Analgesia opioid treatment for postoperative pain

You may not qualify if:

  • \- Pain resulting from emergency surgery
