IV Acetaminophen for Acute Post Operative Pain in C-Section Patients
NCT02069184 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
Post-operative pain management after C-section is an important topic as the number of elective c-sections increases each year. Pain is managed either by giving opioids or by using non-opioids. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of IV Acetaminophen in pain relief and its impact in the usage of post-operative opioid requirements and opioid associated complications. The hypothesis is that four doses of IV Acetaminophen in conjunction with intrathecal or epidural morphine given to the patients after c-section will reduce post-operative opioid requirements and opioid associated complications.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT02069184
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT02069184 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as Phase 4, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 66 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Montefiore Medical Center, which has 280 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Post-operative Pain appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 2 interventions — of which IV Acetaminophen is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT02069184 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include New York. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
