Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Post-operative Pain Questionnaire

    Determine the efficacy of non-narcotic pain regiments in patients undergoing breast reduction surgery and compare it to narcotic-based pain regiments in improving post-operative pain in patients undergoing breast reduction surgery. Patients will be asked to rate their pain from a scale of 0 ("No Pain") to 10 ("Pain as bad as you can imagine").

    Day 0 - Day 7

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Post operative Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire: Postoperative Reduction Module Satisfaction with Outcome

    Day 0- Day 7

  • Post operative Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire: Postoperative Module Satisfaction with Information Survey

    Day 0- Day 7

  • Post operative Quality of Life Questionnaire

    Day 0- Day 7

Study Arms (2)

Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Arm

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

ERAS Arm will undergo multimodal regiment: Before Surgery- gabepentin 300mg and celecoxib 400mg once the day before surgery and again 3 hours prior to surgery. During surgery- subjects will receive ketorolac 30mg IV ketorolac once (15mg for patients age 64 years and above). Post-operatively- Gabapentin 100mg three times daily for POD0-7, ketorolac 10mg four times daily for POD1-5 days, and ondansetron 4mg as needed for nausea; patients will also have a prescription for hydrocodone-acetaminophen 5/325mg tabs that they may fill if needed for emergency/breakthrough pain.

Procedure: Macromastia

Current Practice Arm

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The current practice arm will include: post-operatively, hydrocodone-acetaminophen 5/325mg tabs and ibuprofen 800mg, as needed for pain. Additionally, acetaminophen may be used in conjunction with the above regiment. Ibuprofen and acetaminophen can be taken as needed or alternating every 6 hours, scheduled.

Procedure: Macromastia

Interventions

MacromastiaPROCEDURE

Patients with macromastia seeing the principle investigator (PI) (JMK) at his office at the Outpatient Building, which includes the Outpatient Surgery Center (OSC), in the Department of Plastic Surgery clinic at UT-Southwestern for their initial operative consultation for reduction mammaplasty will be offered enrollment in the trial if they are deemed appropriate surgical candidates, based on the PI's clinical judgement and expertise.
