Effect of Intravenous Acetaminophen on Postoperative Opioid-related Complications
Some patients have respiratory depression (decreased breaths per minute) after surgery. Acetaminophen, an FDA approved pain medication, may prevent this problem. The purpose of this study is to determine if acetaminophen decreases respiratory depression after surgery. The investigators will also evaluate the cost effectiveness of acetaminophen.
Patients having elective major abdominal surgery are being asked to participate in this research study. If eligible, a patient will have their baseline tidal volume (amount of air moved into or out of the lungs) and vital capacity (how much air the lungs are capable of holding) measured using a spirometer (apparatus for measuring the volume of air inspired and expired by the lungs) measured before surgery. Three questionnaires will also need to be completed before surgery.
The patient will then be randomized, like flipping a coin, to receive either Acetaminophen or placebo (inactive substance) as an infusion throughout surgery and for the first two days thereafter. Neither the patient nor his or her physician will know if the patient is assigned to study drug or placebo. Regardless of study assignment, both groups will receive standard pain management medications and sedation.
After surgery, the patient's blood pressure, activity, posture, respiratory rate, the electrical activity of the heart, oxygen saturation, tidal volume, minute ventilation and respiratory rate will be continuously monitored and recorded for 48 hours using a wireless pulse-oximeter and a respiratory volume monitor.
48 hours after surgery the patient will be asked to complete a patient satisfaction questionnaire, which will allow the patient to rate the satisfaction with the treatment received for pain. The patient will also be asked to complete a questionnaire about recovery.
At discharge, the patient will be given two questionnaires about pain and quality of life.

Duration of Hypoxemia
Tidsramme: the initial 48 hours of postoperative monitoring or for the duration of hospitalization, if shorter.
|
Hypoxemia is measured as minutes with hypoxemia (Spo2 <90%) per hour of successful Spo2 monitoring.
Patients will have nearly continuous pulseoximeter monitoring and recording.
Data from the monitor will be downloaded daily for 48 hours postoperatively.

Tidsramme |
|---|---|---|

Time-weighted Pain Score During Initial 48 Postoperative Hours
Tidsramme: Initial 48 postoperative hours or duration of hospitalization (whichever comes first)
|
Pain scores were calculated on a visual analog scale of 0 to 10, with 0 being no pain and 10 being the most pain imaginable; time weighted mean was calculated as the area under the curve of the pain score measurements divided by total measurement time.
Pain was recorded at roughly 15-minute intervals in the postanesthesia care unit and at 4-hour intervals on surgical wards

Time Weighted Pain Score in Post Anesthesia Care Unit
Tidsramme: Initial 48 postoperative hours or duration of hospitalization (whichever comes first)
|
Pain scores were calculated on a visual analog scale of 0 to 10, with 0 being no pain and 10 being the most pain imaginable; time-weighted mean was calculated as the area under the curve of the pain score measurements divided by total measurement time.

Fatigue Score on Morning of Postoperative Day 1
Tidsramme: Postoperative day 1
|
Fatigue scores were calculated on a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being no fatigue and 10 being the worst fatigue imaginable.

Lowest RASS Score During Initial 48 Postoperative Hours
Tidsramme: Initial 48 postoperative hours or duration of hospitalization (whichever comes first)
|
Sedation was estimated by the RASS score and recorded at 2-hour intervals by ward nurses per clinical routine during the initial 48 postoperative hours.
The Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS) is scored from -5 to +4, with -5 being unarousable, 0 being alert and calm, and +4 being combative.
