N2 - We conducted a prospective randomized, double-blind clinical
trial in patients undergoing ambulatory surgery. Eligible consenting
patients were randomly allocated to one of three groups. In addition
to usual analgesia, patients received pre and postoperative placebo,
or pre and postoperative oral acetaminophen. Mean pain intensity by
visual analogue scale (VAS) measured over 24 hours was the primary
outcome measure.
