Objective: To analyze safety and efficacy of single-dose ketorolac after primary palatoplasty (PP). Design: Consecutive cohort of patients undergoing PP, comparing to historical controls. Setting: A large academic children’s hospital. Patients, Participants: A consecutive cohort of 111 patients undergoing PP (study n = 47) compared to historical controls (n = 64). Interventions: All patients received intraoperative acetaminophen, dexmedetomidine, and opioids while the study group received an additional single dose of ketorolac (0.5 mg/kg) at the conclusion of PP. Main Outcome Measures: Safety of ketorolac was measured by significant bleeding complications and need for supplementary oxygen. Efficacy was assessed through bleeding, Face Legs Activity Cry Consolability (FLACC) scale, and opioid dose. Results: Length of stay was similar for both groups (control group 38.5 hours [95% CI: 3.6-43.3] versus study group 37.6 hours [95% CI: 31.3-44.0], P = .84). There were no significant differences in all postoperative FLACC scales. The mean dose of opioid rescue medication measured as morphine milligram equivalents did not differ between groups ( P = .56). Significant postoperative hemorrhage was not observed. Conclusions: This is the first prospective study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of single-dose ketorolac after PP. Although lack of standardization between study and historical control groups may have precluded observation of an analgesic benefit, analysis demonstrated a single dose of ketorolac after PP is safe. Further investigations with more patients and different postoperative regimens may clarify the role of ketorolac in improving pain after PP.
