Pain Treatment With Combinations of NSAIDs
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The search for new safe and effective methods of pain relief after surgery on large joints is still an urgent problem. The most optimal approach in the treatment of postoperative pain is the use of multimodal analgesia with a different mechanism of action that act on various mechanisms of pain and can include opioids, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), acetaminophen, anticonvulsants, NMDA antagonists, alpha-2-agonists, and sodium and calcium channel blocking agents, as well as local anesthetics. NSAIDs are the most popular and safe means for pain relief. Therefore, a lot of efforts are aimed at increasing the effectiveness of NSAIDs use. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of simultaneously administering two or three NSAIDs, compared to using only one NSAID, for pain relief after surgery on large joints such as hip or knee arthroplasty.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Measuring postoperative pain using the visual analog scale for pain (VAS-P) [5 days]
The patients choose the score on the 10 cm line scale with (VAS-P) rage from 0 ('no pain') to 10 (severe pain).
Secondary Outcome Measures
