The Influence of Intraoperative Sedative on Postoperative Pain in Total Knee Arthroplasty Under Spinal Anesthesia: Comparison Between Dexmedetomidine and Propofol

In this study, based on the hypothesis that dexmedetomidine administered intraoperatively for sedation can reduce postoperative pain than that of propofol, the investigators examined the ability of dexmedetomidine to reduce postoperative pain in in patients undergoing the total knee arthroplasty.
