Study Summary

This study aims is to evaluate the effect of opioid free total intravenous anesthesia on postoperative quality of recovery in patients undergoing oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMF) temporomandibular joint (TMJ) surgery.

Primary Outcome

Pain will be measured using the eleven point (0 to 10) numeric rating scale with higher values representing a worse outcome. Pain scores will be recorded every 15 minutes until discharge from the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) and at 12 and 24 hours postoperatively. Clinically documented pain scores will be recorded. Our primary outcome will be the worst documented pain score while in the PACU. Additional pain score time points will be evaluated as secondary endpoints.
