NCT04360135

Brief Summary

This study is investigating whether administration of acetaminophen the day before surgery improves post operative pain following minimally invasive hysterectomy. Patients will receive either acetaminophen or placebo to take twice per day the day prior to their scheduled surgery. The morning of surgery all participants will receive oral acetaminophen at least 30 minutes prior to surgery. The investigators will examine whether there is a difference in post operative pain between the two groups.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Post-operative opioid use

    The total amount of opiate consumption in the immediate postoperative period will be recorded. Per standard protocol, patient's will be ordered for pain medication to receive on an as needed basis. The amount of both oral and IV opioids consumed by the patient will be converted to total morphine equivalents. As such, post operative opioid use will be used as a proxy for degree of post operative pain.
