Preemptive versus postoperative lumiracoxib for analgesia in ambulatory arthroscopic knee surgery
Journal of Pain Research, 04/22/09
Grifka J et al. - Both preemptive and postoperative lumiracoxib resulted in significantly lower PI scores at rest and after movement at all time-points and no statistically significant difference was observed between the active treatments. Time to rescue medication intake was comparable for both active treatments. The proportion of adverse events was similar among all groups. We conclude that the efficacy of lumiracoxib 400 mg is not affected by the timing of administration (preemptive or postoperative).
