Pain Management After Shoulder Arthroplasty

Status Enrolling by invitation

Clinical Trial Summary

Pain control is a critical after many surgical procedures. It is well known that orthopaedic surgeries are among the most painful procedures, with total joint arthroplasty being a clear example of this situation. Current trends in pain management are morphing and multimodal opioid sparing protocols are now being evaluated and implemented, with results showing a decrease in the amount of opioids being prescribed. Despite all efforts, most patients experience pain and, in order to control it, multiple medications have been tried with variable results. The most commonly prescribed medications are opioids, but side effects associated with their use as well as their addictive potential are making them a less desirable option for patients. Currently there is a trend towards diminishing opioids consumption and prescribing alternative pain control regimens.Caffeine is a well known molecule that when associated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) potentiates their analgesic effect and decreases the amount of doses required to control pain. Little is known about the effect of caffeine over pain relief in patients undergoing total joint arthroplasty, but preliminary results in other fields make us believe it could have a potential benefit for patients undergoing total joint arthroplasty.
