Hip surgery breakthrough: new injection cuts pain pills

NCT ID NCT07023120

Summary

This study aimed to find the best recipe for a pain-blocking injection given during hip replacement surgery. Researchers tested 120 patients to see if using a smaller dose of numbing medicine, or adding a common steroid, worked better. They found that adding the steroid to the injection helped pain last longer and reduced the need for strong opioid painkillers after surgery.
