Ketorolac for pain after hip arthroscopy
Treatments studied
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study tests whether ketorolac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), helps manage pain after hip surgery. It may offer an opioid-sparing option for patients with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI).
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether giving a low dose of a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) called ketorolac for a short time after orthopedic surgery can reduce the need for strong painkillers like opioids. It is for people who have broken bones that need surgery with metal plates, screws, or rods.
This trial tests if a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) called ketorolac can help reduce pain after lower back fusion surgery. It is for people who are having elective surgery to fuse one or two bones in their lower back.
This trial looks at whether a ketorolac pain medicine given directly to the leg during surgery can reduce pain after lower-limb orthopedic operations. It may help people who are having one leg operated on with spinal anesthesia and a tourniquet, but it has several safety limits.
This Phase 3 study tests a pain medicine plan used after preventive surgery to place a metal rod inside the thigh bone (femur) before a fracture happens. The goal is to find an approach that controls post-surgery pain while being safe for the right patients.
This study tests whether giving a combination of two medicines, ketorolac and gabapentin, before surgery can help reduce pain after a total knee replacement. It may offer better pain control for patients aged 40 to 80 having one knee replaced.
This trial tests whether a lower dose of the pain medicine ketorolac can safely control pain for people in the intensive care unit (ICU). If you are in the ICU and have pain, this study might help find a better way to treat it.
