| Core Tip |
The use of an opioid-sparing multimodal analgesia protocol for ambulatory spine surgery patients resulted in significant reductions in postoperative opioid consumption without compromising quality outcomes or increasing postoperative resource utilization. Patients in the opioid-sparing group had a shorter length of stay, were prescribed opioids less frequently in the recovery room, and were prescribed significantly fewer postoperative morphine-milligram-equivalents at discharge compared to those in the usual care group. Opioid sparing multimodal analgesia protocols appear safe and effective for patients undergoing spine surgery in the ambulatory surgery center setting. |
