Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Pain 'Right Now'

    Visual analog scale score for pain on a scale from 0 = None to 10 = Worst.

    24 hours after the end of surgery

  • Morphine Equivalents of Concomitant Pain Medication

    The morphine equivalent is a unit of measure to compare the efficacy of different types of opioids (narcotics). The patients were allowed to take additional pain medication in addition to either study drug or placebo. This outcome measure reports the amount of morphine (in mg) equivalent to the amount of concomitant pain medication used by the patient.

    24 hours after the end of surgery

Study Arms (2)

Ketorolac

EXPERIMENTAL

90 mg ketorolac in 1 L of normal saline infused at 40-120 mL/hr for 18.5-23 hours beginning 0.5 hours after the end of surgery.

Drug: Ketorolac

Placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

1 L of normal saline infused at 40-120 mL/hr for 18.5-23 hours beginning 0.5 hours after the end of surgery.
