Vitamin c injection studied to ease agony of knee surgery

NCT ID NCT05514197

Summary

This study tested whether adding a single high dose of vitamin C to standard pain-blocking injections could help patients recover better after knee replacement surgery. Researchers enrolled 73 patients aged 50-80 to compare pain levels, need for strong painkillers like morphine, and recovery speed. The goal was to see if this simple addition could make the difficult postoperative period more manageable.
