Study Summary

This trial is comparing a new pain medication to the current standard to see if it's more effective.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 years old needing a primary total knee replacement due to joint disease, who can consent and have an ASA classification I to III.

What is being tested?
The study tests HTX-011 against standard pain control practices after knee surgery. HTX-011 is FDA-approved and may offer better pain management within the first 72 hours post-surgery compared to the usual mix of ropivacaine, epinephrine, ketorolac in saline.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions at the injection site, nausea, constipation from opioids typically used alongside these medications. There might also be risks related to individual components like allergic reactions or bleeding from NSAIDs.
