Summary
Study question: Is there an ideal combination of intraoperative long acting analgesics
(periarticular infiltration (PI), femoral nerve block (FB) and intrathecal opioids (IO)) to
optimize post-operative functional recovery, decrease overall narcotic consumption and enable
faster 'readiness to discharge' for patients undergoing primary total knee replacement (TKR)?
