Study Summary
The objective of this phase 2 study is to investigate the efficacy of Dexamethasone sodium phosphate (DEX) plus Methylprednisolone acetate (MPA) in combination with plain bupivacaine (B) compared with Liposomal Bupivacaine (LB) in combination with plain bupivacaine on post-surgical pain control among patients undergoing unilateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA) to asses if perineural B-DEX-MPA will result in superior analgesia efficacy as compared to B-LB. This study will also assess if perineural B-DEX-MPA results in improved quality of postoperative recovery as compared to B-LB.
Primary Outcome
Average postoperative knee pain scores for the first two postoperative days using Visual analogue scale (VAS) pain score. Score range from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain possible).
