Summary
In emergency medicine, acute pain is a common reason for consultation. It is recommended that
patients in moderate to severe pain should receive a combination of intravenous acetaminophen
and morphine. However, the data are sparse to support this strategy. Thus, the purpose of our
research is to test non-inferiority of IV morphine alone versus IV acetaminophen and morphine
in a multicenter, randomized, controlled double blind trial in ED patients with moderate to
severe acute pain.
