Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the addition of magnesium to bupivacaine for the post-operative adductor canal blocks (ACB) can decrease opioid consumption and improve pain management for patients after same-day discharge total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The investigators will assess whether the addition of magnesium will decrease visual analog scale (VAS) pain scores, decrease post-operative total opioid consumption (oral morphine equivalents), decrease the incidence of post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV), and improve patient satisfaction in comparison to when magnesium is not administered.
