Participant Flow

Planned enrollment was "90" whereas the actual enrollment was "88".

At the time when recruitment reached 88 subject, elective surgeries at our institution were paused because of pandemic. However, when elective surgeries were resumed, Mallinckrodt, Inc. who provided support for the study filed for bankruptcy and we were not longer able to continue recruitment.

Measure
Normal Saline
Patients will receive 100 milliliters of normal saline with the first dose given preoperatively in the holding area followed by re-dosing every four hours from that point up to a maximum of 4 doses in 24 hours. Blinded medication will be prepared by research pharmacist. normal saline: 100mL of normal saline every 4 hours to a maximum administration of 400mL
Acetaminophen
Patients 50kg or more will receive either 1000mg IV acetaminophen with the first dose given preoperatively in the holding area followed by re-dosing every four hours from that point up to a maximum of 4 doses or 4000mg in 24 hours. Patients \<50 kg will receive 12.5mg/kg to a maximum of 75 mg /per kg/per day as per the label dose with repeat dosing Q4 hours. Blinded medication will be prepared by research pharmacist in 100mL of normal saline Acetaminophen: patients 50kg or more receive1000mg in 100milliliters of normal saline every 4 hours to a maximum dose 4000mg/24 hours. \<50kg receive 12.5mg/kg to a maximum of 75mg/kg/24 hours.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Every 15 min for 2 hours or until achieving discharge-readiness, whatever comes first, an average of 1 hour

Population: Not all participants were analyzed at every time point up to 120 minutes but only until participants were achieving discharge-readiness criteria.

Pain scores every 15 min for 2 hours or until achieving discharge-readiness, whatever comes first, an average of 1 hour. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pain was used: score on a scale from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain) were recorded.
