Each patient will undergo mastectomy(ies) if immediate reconstruction is being performed, followed by uni- or bilateral abdominally based free flap harvest, microsurgical anastomoses, and flap inset. If randomized to the ketorolac intervention group, then the participant will receive 30 mg of intravenous (IV) ketorolac tromethamine. The anaesthetist will give participants their first study drug intravenously at the conclusion of surgery. The participant will then continue to receive their assigned drug every 6 hours for 72 hours, for a total of 13 doses. Patients all receive 1:1 care from nursing staff in the early postoperative period, and their nurse will administer all drugs given on the surgical ward.

Each patient will undergo mastectomy(ies) if immediate reconstruction is being performed, followed by uni- or bilateral abdominally based free flap harvest, microsurgical anastomoses, and flap inset. If randomized to the control group the patient will be given a sham IV medication. The sham medication will be normal saline at the same volume as ketorolac, which corresponds to 3 ccs. The anaesthetist will give participants their first study drug intravenously at the conclusion of surgery.

Pharmacogenetic Study of Antiarrhythmic Drugs for Atrial Fibrillation

A Prospective, Multi-Center, Randomized, Open Label Trial to Determine if a Common Atrial Fibrillation Risk Locus Modulates Differential Response to Antiarrhythmic Drugs

Subjects will be monitored with the Medtronic Reveal LINQ Insertable Cardiac Monitor (ICM) system to assess AF burden. The device will be programmed to optimize the memory for storing AF episode..

Quality of life assessment: Patients will be asked to fill out the AFEQT quality of life questionnaire baseline (study randomization), two, four, six, eight, ten, and 12 months (completion of the study). The questionnaire at the end of the 6rd month will be administered just prior to stopping the first study drug. The validated questionnaire is comprised of 20 questions about AF symptoms with answers given on a Likert scale. The questionnaire will be provided to the patients in paper format either in person or by mail, as applicable. A follow-up phone call will be made to each patient to ensure that the questionnaire is completed and returned.
