Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: educationExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The teaching arm would consist of a standardized dialogue the surgeon will complete with the patient in order to familiarize the patient with the risks of over-prescribing opioid medication and set patient expectations regarding the clinic's opioid prescribing pattern protocol, in an effort to minimize the number of opioid pills prescribed or refills required, the amount actually used, and the untoward side effects of opioid use (e.g. respiratory depression, nausea, sedation, restriction from driving, and access to and use by those the medication was not intended).
Group II: no educationActive Control1 Intervention
Standard preoperative care without dedicated teaching regarding opioid use and risks
