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.
