Spinal vs. general anesthesia: which is better for joint replacement recovery?

NCT ID NCT06747494

Summary

This study compares two common anesthesia methods—spinal (numbing from waist down) versus general (fully asleep)—for patients getting hip or knee replacements. Researchers want to see which approach leads to better recovery, including less pain and nausea, shorter hospital stays, and fewer complications. They will follow about 2,400 patients to measure these outcomes after surgery.
