Summary

The objective of this study is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of an intra-articular analgesics cocktail injection for post-operative patella fracture fixation patients, by comparing post-operative pain relief and functional recovery among study subjects who received the injection and those who did not receive the injection. Secondary objective is to demonstrate the health economic effects of intra-articular analgesics cocktail injection by reducing length of hospital stay and reducing bed-stay related complications.
