Pharmacogenomics Information in Enhancing Post-operative Total Joint Replacement Pain Management: a Pilot Study
Stopped early · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Arthroplasty, Replacement, Knee, Pain, Postoperative
In brief
The objective of this study is to see how pain management and its outcomes are effected when pharmacogenomic testing is used to determine patient specific pain medication and dosing. Our goal is to determine if through the use of analgesic genetic testing, TKA post-operative patients will see a decrease in narcotic consumption, postsurgical opioid- related adverse reactions, and length of stay, overall NRS pain scores and while maintaining or improving their satisfaction scores.
