July 15, 2019 updated by: Nabil Elkassabany, University of Pennsylvania

Assessment of Patient Outcomes After Shoulder Surgery After Implementation of a Multimodal Perioperative Management Protocol

This proposal aims to measure the quality of recovery and quality of pain management after shoulder surgery before and after implementation of a multimodal pain protocol.

Detailed Description

Pain management after shoulder surgery remains to be a major challenge. Reliance on a single agent (most commonly opioids) results in increased incidence of side effects. Multimodal pain management refers to the use of multiple drugs that target different components of pain pathway.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
QOR-9
Time Frame: 24 hours
quality of recovery score using the QOR-9 instrument: it is a 9 item questionnaire with each question scoring from 0,1,2 with a total highest possible score of 18
24 hours

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
quality of pain management
Time Frame: 24 and 48 hours
quality of pain management was measured using the revised american pain society patient oriented outcome questionnaire (APS-POQ-R). The questionnaire measures quality of pain management in 5 domains: 1- pain intensity 2- pain interference with activity and sleep 3- emotional side effects of uncontrolled pain ( affective scale). 4- patient perception of their pain management 5-side effects of pain treatment some questions answers are on a scale from 0-10. Ten is the maximum score and zero is the minimum score. other questions are listed as percentage with increments of 10% at a time (0%,10%, 20%, 30%..etc). each item/question is reported individually
24 and 48 hours
amount of opioids
Time Frame: 24, 48 and 72 hours after surgery
amount of opioids used converted to mg equivalent of oxycodone
24, 48 and 72 hours after surgery
QOR-9
Time Frame: at 48 hours and 72 hours
quality of recovery score using the QOR-9 instrument: it is a 9 item questionnaire with each question scoring from 0,1,2 with a total highest possible score of 18
at 48 hours and 72 hours
