Hospitalists are the point-person for the care of hospitalized patients.Hospitalists address the urgency of inpatient care and coordinate inpatient care. On average, they:

■ Work 15 shifts a month.

■ Have 16 patient encounters per shift.

■ Treat 5.3 diseases per patient.

■ Prescribe 35 prescription drugs and 10 OTC drugs per shift.

■ Rewrite scripts for one in three patients.

■ Comanage patient care with specialists.

■ Although they are physicians, hospitalists don’t have an office practice.

■ 85% of hospitalists rarely or never see pharmaceutical reps.

. .Case Study OneIV Acetaminophen for a Patient With Ileus on Parenteral Nutrition and Mechanical VentilationBruCe FrIedM AN, MDCritical Care & Co-Director, JM Still Burn CenterDoctors 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, requir-ing 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. 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 break-through 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 de-bridement 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.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.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 disad-vantageous 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. +

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, gastroin-

testinal 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 pa-

tient 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.4, 5,

6 By incorporating different classes of analgesic agents with unique pharmacologic and physiologic

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 re-

garding 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

Compared to oral acetaminophen, IV acetaminophen achieves a rapid elevation in plasma concen-

tration 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 complica-

tions of pain management that include nausea and vomiting, respiratory depression, ileus, and con-

stipation. In addition, studies have shown that postoperative pain is associated with poor outcomes,

such as increased time to ambulation, longer lengths of stay9 and increased rates of complications
