Richard V. Hausrod, md Chairman Emergency Department EMH Healthcare Elyria, Ohio brian Tyson, md Hospitalist Critical Care Partners Desert Regional Medical Center Palm Springs, Calif. Supported by IV Acetaminophen for a Patient With Ileus on Parenteral Nutrition and Mechanical Ventilation BruCe FrIedMAN, MD Critical Care & Co-Director, JM Still Burn Center Doctors Hospital, Augusta, Ga. A 61-year-old morbidly obese woman presented at the burn center with necrotizing fasciitis of the abdomen, which developed following a midline hernia repair and adnexal mass removal. Her case was complicated by multiorgan dysfunction, and she arrived septic, requiring pressor support and mechanical ventilation. The patient also had a history of asthma, hypertension, depression, and hypothyroidism. When the patient arrived at the burn center, she was on total parenteral nutrition and very sick. Prior surgical intervention had resulted in paralytic ileus, resulting in prolonged nil-by-mouth status. For pain management, she required 10 mg intravenous (IV) methadone every 12 hours, a midazolam infusion of 4 mg/hr, and intermittent doses of morphine sulfate for breakthrough pain. Once the patient was medically stabilized, she required debridement, which necessitated a return to the operating room. Postoperatively, her Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS) score was 4, indicating deep sedation, which further complicated her ileus. Inpatient pain management is a necessary skill set for all physicians, but it is particularly important for hospitalists working in the inpatient setting. Pain is so pervasive in the hospital setting that it is sometimes referred to as the fifth vital sign, and a failure to manage pain has important implications not only for hospitalists, but also for the hospitals where they practice. Hospitalists play a critical role not only in comanaging postoperative patients, but they also manage a wide range of conditions in which pain is prevalent, from pancreatitis to small bowel obstructions to sickle-cell disease. While opioid monotherapy has long been the primary approach to pain management in the inpatient setting, the medical literature has documented numerous significant negative effects of opiate and analgesic use in hospital-based practice. These negative effects include opioid addiction, gastrointestinal issues such as nausea and vomiting, constipation and ileus, and serious complications such as respiratory depression and sedation, which increase the risk of respiratory failure, aspiration, decreased mobility, and falls. 1 Research also indicates that current pain management strategies often fail to adequately control patient pain. One study found that more than 80% of U.S. patients who have surgery report significant postoperative pain. 2 Data from another study indicate that fewer than half of postoperative patients report receiving adequate pain relief. 3 An alternative approach to pain management that has been gaining traction among physicians is a multimodal analgesia strategy that incorporates not only opioids, but other classes of analgesics. Based on the above issues, the methadone and the midazolam drip were discontinued and replaced with 1000 mg IV acetaminophen every six hours; morphine was provided for breakthrough pain. No other sedatives or analgesics were given to the patient. The patient s variability in blood pressure improved, and enteral nutrition was initiated using a postpyloric tube. IV acetaminophen allowed the pain management team to promptly wean the patient from the ventilator as her narcotic requirement significantly decreased, resulting in greater respiratory drive. Once the patient was taken off all narcotics and benzodiazepines, she showed a RASS score of 0, which indicated that she was calm and alert without any complaints of pain. She required morphine only during complex dressing changes, not for breakthrough pain. The patient reached enteral nutrition goals 48 hours after IV acetaminophen was initiated. At that point, parenteral nutrition was no longer required, and the patient encountered no further issues with ileus. While the patient required additional surgical procedures involving abdominal wound debridement and negative pressure wound therapy, she needed no additional narcotics for the remainder of her hospitalization. IV acetaminophen was routinely continued for 32 days until her discharge. 4, 5, 6 By incorporating different classes of analgesic agents with unique pharmacologic and physiologic Once the patient s ileus resolved, her premorbid problems with mood disorder resurfaced. At that point, her RASS score vacillated between +1 and +2 secondary to anxiety. The burn center team prescribed up to 1 mg alprazolam every 6 hours and later added 60 mg/day duloxetine. The team was able to reduce her RASS score to 0 without adding any narcotics or analgesics. actions, physicians can prescribe smaller doses of each agent, a strategy that helps reduce the potential for drug-related adverse events. 6 One element in such a multimodal approach to pain management is OFIRMEV, an intravenous (IV) formulation of acetaminophen. IV acetaminophen was approved by the FDA in November 2010 for the management of mild to moderate pain, the management of moderate to severe pain with adjunctive opioid analgesics, and the reduction of fever. 7 While IV acetaminophen is relatively new in the U.S., the same formulation of IV acetaminophen has been available in Europe since 2002 and was widely used in more than 60 countries before reaching the U.S. market. As a result, a large body of literature exists supporting the role of IV acetaminophen in the management of acute pain while reducing opioid use. This special report examines data regarding the use of IV acetaminophen, including its efficacy in controlling pain; its ability to reduce not only the use of opioids, but also adverse effects such as post-operative nausea and vomiting; and its effects on length of stay and patient satisfaction. Efficacy of IV acetaminophen A major concern in this case was the potential for drug retention of lipid-soluble drugs such as opioids and benzodiazepines because of the patient s morbid obesity and associated disadvantageous pharmacokinetics. That could have potentially led to difficulty weaning from the ventilator and prolonged sedation. Drugs such as IV acetaminophen allow decreased reliance on opioid analgesics, thus potentially avoiding these kinds of issues. + Compared to oral acetaminophen, IV acetaminophen achieves a rapid elevation in plasma concentration and higher peak levels. 8 The IV form achieves plasma levels rarely achieved by similar oral doses of acetaminophen and produces 75% higher central nervous system (CNS) bioavailability compared to the oral form. 8 The analgesic effect peaks within one hour and lasts for four to six hours. 7 The efficacy of pain management therapies is of great interest to hospitalists for a variety of reasons. As comanagers of postoperative patients, hospitalists are routinely faced with a variety of complications of pain management that include nausea and vomiting, respiratory depression, ileus, and constipation. In addition, studies have shown that postoperative pain is associated with poor outcomes, such as increased time to ambulation, longer lengths of stay 9 and increased rates of complications Today s Hospitalist Special Report 1 Today s Hospitalist Special report Today s Hospitalist Special Report 5 To learn more, contact:
