Summary
An alternate perioperative pain control protocol composed of intravenous ketorolac and oral
acetaminophen for patients who underwent total knee replacement was designed with the aim to
determine its efficacy when compared to pain control with intravenous morphine and oral
oxycodone combined with acetaminophen. In addition, the study will evaluate the differences
and similarities in the Hispanic population that could predict protocol efficacy.
