New approach could ease agony after knee surgery

NCT ID NCT07176065

Summary

This study tests whether adding a sedative medicine called dexmedetomidine to a standard numbing injection provides better pain relief after knee replacement surgery. Sixty patients having knee replacement will be randomly assigned to receive either the standard numbing medicine alone or the numbing medicine plus the sedative. Researchers will measure pain levels, painkiller use, and recovery speed over 24 hours to see if the combination is more effective and safe.
