Study Protocol: Opioid-Free Orthopaedic Surgery
Research Question(s):
- Can an opioid-free, multi-modal pain management pathway provide patients with a safe and predictable alternative to a conventional opioid-based pain management regimen?
- Is there a difference in rates of complications, side-effects, and overall satisfaction between the two groups?
- What are the barriers of enrollment and outcomes of patients that refuse study enrollment and do they differ from the study patient population?
