CHICAGO A recently released study shows that a multimodal pain regimen (MMPR) designed to minimize opioid exposure and relieve acute pain associated with traumatic injury kept patient self-reported pain scores low while also reducing the daily and total amount of opioid drugs given to trauma patients.
Results from the first study of its kind to evaluate an MMPR in a rigorous, randomized controlled trial were published online as an “article in press” by the
Journal of the American College of Surgeons in advance of print.
“Opioids should not be considered the pillar of treatment for acute pain after injury,” said lead study author John A. Harvin, MD, FACS, associate professor for the department of surgery, McGovern Medical School, The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHealth) and trauma surgeon at the Red Duke Trauma Institute at Memorial Hermann-Texas Medical Center.
