To compare narcotic versus nonnarcotic outpatient oral pain management after pediatric laparoscopic appendectomy.Methods. In a prospective study from July 1, 2010, to March 30, 2011, children undergoing laparoscopic appendectomy on a rapid discharge protocol were treated with either nonnarcotic or narcotic postoperative oral analgesia. Two surgeons in a four-person faculty group employed the nonnarcotic regimen, while the other two used narcotics. Days of medication use, time needed for return to normal activity, and satisfaction rate with the pain control method were collected. Student’st-test was used for statistical analysis.Results. A total of 207 consecutive children underwent appendectomy for acute, nonperforated appendicitis or planned interval appendectomy. The age and time to discharge were equivalent between the nonnarcotic (n=104) and narcotic (n=103) groups. Both had an equivalent number of medication days and similar times of return to normal activity. Ninety-s...
