"Comparing Pelvic Pain Improvement Using IV vs PO Acetaminophen"
Pain is the most common reason for ED visits in the United States, with up to 52% of all chief complaints related to pain. If IV acetaminophen demonstrates superior efficacy and patient satisfaction, this will inform ED protocols for childbearing capable persons' pain management, reduce their opioid exposure, and improve patient-centered outcomes in a historically undertreated and understudied population.
