What this trial studies

This clinical trial evaluates the effectiveness of a nonopioid pain control regimen compared to standard opioid pain management in patients undergoing open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) for traumatic fractures. The study involves a randomized, single-blinded design where adult patients will be assigned to either a nonopioid treatment group or a control group receiving opioids. The aim is to assess postoperative pain control and minimize the side effects associated with opioid use. The trial is conducted at Henry Ford Hospital and West Bloomfield Hospital by fellowship-trained trauma surgeons.
