Official title Intravenous Acetaminophen After Cardiac Surgery - Definitive Study
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06613178
What this study is testing
What is acetaminophen?
acetaminophen is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for post operative delirium.
Also referred to as placebo.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- Double blind, double dummy trial of the use of IV acetaminophen versus oral acetaminophen for the prevention of delirium after cardiac surgery. The underlying hypothesis is that better pain control and less use of narcotics will lead to a lower incidence of delirium from day 1 to 7 following cardiac surgery.
- Phase 4: studies an already-approved treatment
- You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance.
