Gabapentin to Reduce Opioid Use Postoperatively (GROUP) in Children
open to eligible people ages up to 17 years
The primary objective of this study is to determine if the peri and post operative use of gabapentin in children reduces the need for narcotics after thoracic surgery. We hypothesize that patients who are given gabapentin will need fewer morphine equivalents postoperatively than those who were not given gabapentin
