Nefopam for less pain after knee replacement surgery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This Phase 2 study tests whether oral nefopam can reduce pain after total knee replacement done with spinal anesthesia. It looks at whether this medicine works better than the usual post-surgery pain plan and how safely it can be used.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult (not a child) having a total knee replacement
- Your surgery plan includes spinal anesthesia (numbing medicine into the back)
- Your overall health is in the ASA 1 to 3 range (generally healthy to moderately healthy)
- You can sign a written consent form
- You have no conditions that make nefopam unsafe for you (including seizure history, urine retention/prostate issues, certain eye pressure problems, or certain heart rhythm/heart disease issues)

This study tests a nerve-blocking injection to reduce pain after knee replacement surgery. The goal is to help patients manage pain better in the days following their operation using a combination pain-control approach.
This trial tests whether adding nefopam to standard pain medicine (paracetamol and ketoprofen) improves pain control after hip replacement. It looks at both short-term and long-term effects to see if this combination helps patients recover with less pain.
This trial compares two different numbing techniques used during knee replacement surgery to see which one works better for pain control and allows you to move your leg sooner after surgery. You'll receive one of two doses of a numbing medication (Naropeine) around your knee to help manage pain.
This trial tests how the body processes nefopam (a painkiller) in patients with acute musculoskeletal pain. It aims to find the right dose for managing pain during a hospital stay.
This study looks at how much pain and which painkillers patients need after total knee replacement surgery. It compares two anesthesia methods to find which one works better for pain control.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after total knee replacement: one uses a long-lasting numbing medicine, the other uses extra medications during nerve blocks. The goal is to find which method provides better pain relief and recovery.
