Study Summary
Open-label, randomized controlled trial to determine the effect of preoperative acupuncture on preoperative anxiety and postoperative pain for high-anxiety patients undergoing total hip or knee arthroplasty. The hypothesis is that preoperative acupuncture will reduce preoperative anxiety, reduce postoperative pain, reduce postoperative nausea and vomiting, reduce opioid consumption, and improve patient satisfaction.
Primary Outcome
Determine the effect of preoperative acupuncture on preoperative anxiety in the acupuncture group using VAS (Visual Analog Scale) which is a 10 centimeters line in length, from 0-100, with 0 at the left extreme being "not at all anxious" and 100 at the right extreme being "very anxious". Participants put a cross on the line to indicate how they felt at the time point used. A higher score means worse as it means high anxiety.
Interventions
- DEVICE Acupuncture needles
