Conditions

Persistent Post Operative Opioid Use, Post-surgical Pain

Keywords

CYP2D6 SNPs, OPRM1 SNPs, COMT SNPs, Pharmacogenomics

Brief summary

The main questions this study aims to answer are: Does perioperative PGx personalized opiate therapy reduce persistent post-operative opioid use dependency, improve pain management and reduce opiate related adverse events in opioid naïve patients after surgery? Participants will: Take hydromorphone if the PGx results determine they have a SNP indicating high or low metabolic activity in the CYP2D6 enzyme. Complete a 7-day pain diary post-discharge. Complete a follow-up phone call once per month for 90 days.

Interventions

OTHERPGx guided personalized post-operative pain management

Patients in the intervention group will receive post operative opioid therapy based on their pharmacogenomic results. Patients who are poor CYP2D6 metabolizers or rapid CYP2D6 metabolizers with moderate or severe pain, will be prescribed either oral hydromorphone 2mg every 4 hours as needed or oral hydromorphone 4mg every 4 hours as needed, respectively. Patients who are intermediate or normal CYP2D6 metabolizers with moderate or severe pain will receive oxycodone 5mg or oxycodone 10mg every 4 hours as needed respectively similar to the treatment offered to the control subjects. Normal or intermediate CYP2D6 metabolizers who are concomitantly taking a drug which is a strong CYP2D6 inducer will be treated as if they are in the rapid metabolizer group, and normal or intermediate patients that are concomitantly taking a drug which is a strong CYP2D6 inhibitor will be treated as if they were a poor metabolizer.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Persistent Post-Operative Opioid Use90 daysTo determine the overall difference in the number of post-operative opioid prescriptions in 90 days using PGx guided post operative medication

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Post-Surgical Pain7 daysTo determine if PGx guided medication improves post-operative pain scores compared to similar patients who are given the standard current post operative opiate treatment. The scores are being rated using the Face, Legs, Activity, Cry and Consolability scale ranging from a minimum value of 0 to a maximum value of 10.

Other

MeasureTime frameDescription
Opioid Related Adverse Events90 daysTo determine if PGx guided medication reduces total opioid related adverse events compared to standard post operative opiate therapy.
