About this study

Official title: Effects of Perioperative Belladonna and Opium Suppositories on Postoperative Pain and Morphine Consumption on Patients After Robotic Assisted Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy

This study is evaluating the effect of a Belladonna and Opium suppository administered intraoperatively on post operative pain after laparoscopic radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer. This is a blinded randomized study. 50% of patients will receive the suppository, 50% of patients will not. Neither you or your surgeon will know which group you are in.

Read the detailed description

All patients undergoing LRP at Virginia Mason Medical Center between November 1, 2008 and July 30, 2009 were offered the opportunity to participate in a randomized double blind clinical trial. Operating surgeons were blinded to suppository placement which was administered after induction of anesthesia. All patients underwent a standardized anesthesia regimen. Post-operative pain was assessed by a visual analog scale (VAS) and post-operative narcotic use was calculated in intravenous morphine equivalents.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Pain Assessment by Visual Analog Scale at Rest

    The Pain Assessment by Visual Analog Scale (VAS) consists of 100 millimeter (mm) horizontal line with two endpoints 1-100, labeled "no pain" and "worst possible pain. "No pain" is the minimum value and "worst possible pain" is the maximum value.

    Minimum value or "No Pain" is considered a better outcome.

    Measured: 24 hours
