Pain control study for knee replacement surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests whether a medicine called Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), given before knee replacement surgery, can improve pain control. It might help people recover with less pain.

Who can take part
- You are between 40 and 80 years old.
- You are scheduled for a total knee replacement.
- You do not have rheumatoid arthritis.

This Phase 2 study compares two ways of reducing nerve pain after knee replacement surgery (total knee arthroplasty). It looks at whether steroid-enhanced pain medicine works better than a different numbing injection to improve recovery and comfort.
This Phase 2 study compares two ways to reduce pain after total knee replacement (TKA): a steroid-enhanced nerve block versus a numbing shot called Exparel. It aims to see which option improves comfort and recovery after surgery done with spinal anesthesia.
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 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 tests if a long-lasting numbing medicine called Exparel, given by the surgeon during knee replacement, helps control pain after surgery. It is for people having their first total knee replacement on one knee due to arthritis.
This study tests a new way to deliver pain medication during and after knee replacement surgery. Researchers compare injecting a long-acting numbing medicine (EXPAREL) directly into the knee joint versus spreading it through the surgical area, to see which method works better for pain control.
