Important Announcements
300!
Feasibility Phase enrollments and randomizations are complete! Between Washington University and University of Michigan, the recruitment teams randomized 300 patients, meeting our goal ahead of schedule.
Feasibility Phase Statistics
Consent Proportion
53% of patients we spoke to (successfully approached) consented to participate in the study.
Intervention Adherence
97% of patients received the anesthetic technique they were randomized to.
Primary Outcomes
We have two co-primary outcomes. 93% of patients completed the Quality of Recovery-15 instrument and 97% of patients completed the awareness survey (Brice).
Full-Scale Site Onboarding Updates
We are submitting our final feasibility phase report to PCORI this week. We expect their review of the report to result in approval for full-scale.

We are about to submit the full scale central IRB application at Washington University. Sites are welcome to meet with their local IRB analyst to introduce the study with the current protocol and consent form, but there are no submission requirements yet.

For logistical purposes, we are scheduling pre-start up meetings with 5-6 sites at a time. We will be scheduling another set of meetings over the next 2 months.
Newsletter Hiatus
This will be our last newsletter for a few months as we prepare for full-scale.

The CCC will be in touch with sites individually for onboarding and the DCC will work with sites on implementing data systems and any MPOG updates needed to start enrollment.
