Prevention of Narcotic-Induced Nausea

Summary

We are doing this study to find out if extra medicine is needed to avoid the chance of nausea sometimes linked to narcotic pain medicine (for example, morphine, dilaudid, fentanyl). Some doctors always give medicine to prevent the possible side effect of nausea, while others do not. We are looking to see if this extra medicine is helpful in preventing nausea. The goal is to screen all patients with pain and enroll enough subjects to reach our goal of 164 evaluable study participants.
