Assessment of Postop Hypospadias Pain

• Status: Recruiting
• Trial end date: 2023-01-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: Male

Summary

One of the most common pediatric urology procedures is hypospadias repair, a surgery to correct curvature of the penis and move the urethral meatus into the glans. A survey of pediatric urologists demonstrated that 72% of pediatric urologists prescribe opioid pain medication following the procedure. Using a validated questionnaire, the investigators aim to quantify how much opioid pain medication boys undergoing hypospadias repair require and if opioid pain medication can be eliminated from the routine postoperative medication regimen.
