Brief summary (from the registry)

New chronic pain and opioid use are reported as prevalent among adolescents undergoing major surgery; many unanswered questions remain regarding recovery and the anticipated pain trajectory across procedures and the interaction between pain treatment, acute inflammation and new chronic pain. Broadly, the proposed study will characterize the adolescent's postoperative recovery experience, and establish the anticipated pain trajectory across a range of procedures.
