Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Efficacy of conditioned open label placebo pill
On postoperative day 0, participant will self-administer one OLP with all opioid analgesics (whether administered intravenously or orally). This pairing will be done from postoperative day 0 to postoperative day 17. Starting on postoperative day 2, participants take 3 scheduled placebo doses (pills or inhalation) every day, at 3 convenient times. In parallel, the OLP pairing to standard and rescue doses of opioids will continue. The patients are told to continue taking both scheduled standalone COLP and paired COLP (if needed) until postoperative day 17. |
Participant take 1 dose placebo (odor or pill) on post-op day 0 (POD 0) and 3 placebo dose from POD 2 to POD 17
|
Experimental: Efficacy of conditioned open label placebo odor
1 drops of clove oil (i.e. eugenol) will be disposed on a cotton and inserted into a stick. The patients will be asked to actively smell them by sniffing using a stick of inhalation. On postoperative day 0, participant will self-administer one OLP with all opioid analgesics (whether administered intravenously or orally). This pairing will be done from postoperative day 0 to postoperative day 17. On postoperative day 2, participants take 3 scheduled placebo doses (pills or inhalation) every day, at 3 convenient times. In parallel, the OLP pairing to standard and rescue doses of opioids will continue. The patients are told to continue taking both scheduled standalone COLP and paired COLP (if needed) until postoperative day 17 |
Participant take 1 dose placebo (odor or pill) on post-op day 0 (POD 0) and 3 placebo dose from POD 2 to POD 17

Active Comparator: Standard of care
Usual postoperative pain management, relying mainly on opioids

Participant take 1 dose placebo (odor or pill) on post-op day 0 (POD 0) and 3 placebo dose from POD 2 to POD 17
