Study Summary
Acute pain management following major surgical procedures in pediatric patients continues to be a challenge, especially after extensive posterior spine fusions. Spine surgery is particularly traumatic, initiating pain in both peripheral and central pathways. While the standard management of post-surgical pain involves a multimodal approach, opioids provide the predominant benefit. However, opioid use is associated with many adverse effects, including nausea, constipation, and pruritus. Perioperative methadone may decrease total opioid consumption and adverse effects as well as improve satisfaction with pain management after scoliosis repair.
Interventions
- DRUG Methadone
- OTHER Normal Saline
- DRUG Morphine
