The utilization of arthroscopic surgery to treat meniscus injuries has continued to increase in recent years, partly due to a younger, more active population, and improved technology and technique. However, pain management in the post-operative period is critical to the ability to perform this procedure as an outpatient surgery. Traditionally, oral narcotic agents have been the preferred analgesic postoperatively in orthopaedic surgery. However, these agents are associated with several side effects, including nausea/vomiting, constipation, and somnolence. In addition, opioid agents have a significant potential for abuse in comparison to non-narcotic analgesics. In light of the rising opioid epidemic and nationwide initiatives to limit narcotic usage, surgeons must explore alternate pain modalities in the acute postoperative period. Ketorolac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) with analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties.1 Multiple prior studies have examined the beneficial effect of oral and intravenous (IV) ketorolac as an analgesic in the postoperative period,1-3 including arthroscopic meniscus surgery. However, the beneficial effects of this agent following arthroscopic meniscus surgery have not been extensively described.

Primary | Pain Levels Recorded With a Visual Analogue Scale | Patients will record pain levels post-operatively using a visual analogue scale (VAS) ranging from 0 as the minimum value to 100 as the maximum value. A smaller VAS value will be considered a lower pain level. | 2 weeks postoperatively | |
