Postoperative pain control in pediatric patients has become a priority for all institutions. There is a paucity of literature on pain control after orthopedic procedures in the pediatric population. The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of acetaminophen with narcotic analgesics, specifically, acetaminophen/codeine and morphine, for pain management after closed reduction and percutaneous pinning of displaced supracondylar humerus fractures in children.

Attention Score in Context
Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 08 May 2018.
All research outputs
#25,758,525
of 32,030,936 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics
#2,011
of 2,902 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#159,735
of 200,489 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics
#28
of 50 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 32,030,936 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 17th percentile – i.e., 17% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,902 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.9. This one is in the 29th percentile – i.e., 29% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 200,489 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 18th percentile – i.e., 18% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 50 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 36th percentile – i.e., 36% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
