NCT05544734

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of ropivacaine and hydrocodone for nail-procedure associated pain management. The investigators hypothesize that ropivacaine with hydrocodone will be superior to ropivacaine with acetaminophen and ibuprofen for managing pain.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change From Baseline in Pain Scores on Postoperative Day 2, as Measured by the Wong-Baker 0-to-10 Pain Scale

    Change in pain scores obtained with the Wong-Baker 0-to-10 pain scale between the 2 groups on postoperative day 2. The Wong-Baker 0-to-10 pain scale is used for rating the severity of pain, with scores ranging from 0 to 10, and higher scores indicating greater severity of pain.

    Baseline, 2 days

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in Health-related Quality of Life Scores on Postoperative Days 3 and 6, as Measured by an Adapted APS-POQ-R Questionnaire

    3 days, 6 days (end of study)

Study Arms (2)

Hydrocodone 5mg/acetaminophen 325mg

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Participants receive oral hydrocodone 5 mg/acetaminophen 325 mg every 4 hours for 2 days, followed by oral acetaminophen 1000 mg and oral ibuprofen 400 mg every 6 hours for 4 days
