Pain Relief After PrimaryTKA
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
While a majority of people who undergo TKA have significant long-term improvement in functional ability, many patients may experience significant pain in the early postoperative period, which may adversely impact postoperative rehabilitation and recovery. Traditionally, opioid medications have been used to control postoperative pain. However, there are many risks with using opioid medications, including addiction and overdose, which kills over 48,000 people yearly. In an effort to overcome this, opioid-sparing multimodal analgesia (MMA) regimens have been developed, commonly using nonsteroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), acetaminophen, regional nerve blocks, and local anesthesia.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Postoperative pain [14 days]
This will be measured by a postoperative Visual Analog Score (VAS) completed by the participant
- Opioid consumption [14 days]
Participants will be asked to keep a diary of how much pain medication they took after surgery
