Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether, for surgery of the tibia, one dose of methadone provides better control of pain afterward as compared to morphine, which is the usual drug given to control pain after surgery. Immediately after the beginning of general anesthesia ("intraoperatively"), subjects will receive one dose of either methadone or morphine, in the amount of 0.2 milligrams per kilogram of body weight, intravenously. The primary hypothesis is that, subjects who receive one dose of methadone intraoperatively will require less pain medicine than subjects who receive one dose of morphine intraoperatively.

Primary Outcome

Number of morphine equivalents used by subject during first 24 hours after discharge from Post-Anesthesia Care Unit
