Study Summary

This trial studied the use of MMA to reduce opioid use after TKA, finding it decreased opioid use significantly with no adverse effects.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 who are having a primary total knee replacement (TKA) and will receive spinal anesthesia. They must be able to fill out questionnaires and not have allergies to NSAIDs or bupivacaine, no chronic pain syndromes, not on long-term anticoagulants or opioids, and not undergoing other types of knee surgeries.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests Zynrelef, a combination of Bupivacaine and Meloxicam designed for extended pain relief after TKA against traditional Bupivacaine. It aims to reduce the need for opioids by using multimodal analgesia techniques in postoperative care.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions at the injection site, potential allergic responses if sensitive to ingredients, gastrointestinal issues due to NSAID content like meloxicam in Zynrelef, and typical local anesthetic risks such as numbness.
