A prospective randomized trial of intravenous ketorolac vs. acetaminophen administered with opioid patient-controlled analgesia in gynecologic surgery.
Abstract
To determine which non-narcotic analgesic, acetaminophen (Ofirmev®) or ketorolac (Toradol®), provides better post-operative pain control when combined with an opioid patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) pump. Secondary objectives include comparisons of the rates of ileus, post-operative bleeding, transfusions, and length-of-hospitalization (LOH).
