Cryotherapy Versus Standard Care in Reducing Opioid Consumption After Total Knee Arthroplasty
Efficacy of Cryotherapy Versus Standard Care in Reducing Opioid Consumption After Total Knee Arthroplasty: A Randomized Controlled Trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if compressive cryotherapy can reduce postoperative opioid consumption in patients undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty. It will also evaluate whether compressive cryotherapy improves postoperative recovery compared with standard care using conventional ice application. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Does compressive cryotherapy reduce the total consumption of opioids during the first 7 days after total knee arthroplasty?
Does compressive cryotherapy reduce postoperative pain and improve early recovery compared with standard cryotherapy?
Researchers will compare compressive cryotherapy using the Game Ready® device with standard care using traditional ice packs to determine whether the intervention reduces opioid consumption and improves postoperative outcomes.
Participants will:
Be randomly assigned to receive compressive cryotherapy or standard cryotherapy with ice packs after surgery.
Apply the assigned treatment four times per day during the first 7 postoperative days.
Record daily pain levels using a visual analog scale (VAS) and document opioid consumption in a pain diary.
Attend a follow-up visit on postoperative day 7 for evaluation of knee swelling, hematoma size, and recovery using the QoR-15 questionnaire.

Waffen und Interventionen
Teilnehmergruppe / Arm |
Intervention / Behandlung |
|---|---|
|
Experimental: Compressive Cryotherapy
Participants assigned to this arm will receive compressive cryotherapy using the Game Ready® device after primary total knee arthroplasty.
The device delivers circulating cold water combined with intermittent pneumatic compression.
Cryotherapy will be applied for 20 minutes, four times per day, during the first 7 postoperative days.
Compression will not be applied during the first two postoperative days and will be applied at medium pressure from postoperative day 3 to day 7.
All participants will also receive the standard postoperative analgesia and rehabilitation protocol.
|
The Game Ready® system provides continuous cold water circulation combined with intermittent pneumatic compression using a circumferential wrap applied to the operated knee.
The device will be used for 20 minutes per session, four times per day during the first 7 postoperative days after total knee arthroplasty.
|
|
Aktiver Komparator: Standard Cryotherapy (Ice Packs)
Participants assigned to this arm will receive standard postoperative care consisting of conventional cryotherapy using ice packs applied to the operated knee as needed during the first 7 postoperative days.
Participants will also be advised to elevate the operated limb to help control postoperative swelling.
All participants will receive the same postoperative analgesia and rehabilitation protocol as the intervention group.
|
Conventional cryotherapy consisting of ice packs applied to the operated knee after surgery according to standard postoperative care.
Ice packs will be applied intermittently during the first 7 postoperative days.

Was misst die Studie?
Primäre Ergebnismessungen
Ergebnis Maßnahme |
Maßnahmenbeschreibung |
Zeitfenster |
|---|---|---|
|
Total opioid consumption (tramadol tablets)
Zeitfenster: First 7 days after surgery
|
Total number of tramadol tablets (50 mg each) consumed by participants during the first 7 postoperative days after primary total knee arthroplasty.
Participants will record daily tramadol consumption in a pain diary, and the total number of tablets used during the study period will be calculated.
|
First 7 days after surgery

Sekundäre Ergebnismessungen
Ergebnis Maßnahme |
Maßnahmenbeschreibung |
Zeitfenster |
|---|---|---|
|
Postoperative pain intensity measured using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS)
Zeitfenster: Daily during the first 7 days after surgery
|
Pain intensity will be assessed using a 0-10 Visual Analog Scale (VAS), where 0 indicates no pain and 10 indicates the worst imaginable pain.
Participants will record daily pain scores in a pain diary during the first postoperative week.
|
Daily during the first 7 days after surgery
|
|
Knee swelling measured by limb circumference
Zeitfenster: Baseline (preoperative) and postoperative day 7
|
Postoperative swelling will be assessed by measuring limb circumference 10 cm proximal to the superior pole of the patella and 10 cm distal to the inferior pole of the patella.
Measurements will be compared with preoperative baseline values.
|
Baseline (preoperative) and postoperative day 7
|
|
Hematoma size
Zeitfenster: Postoperative day 7
|
Hematoma size at the surgical site will be assessed on postoperative day 7 using the Fagotti square classification method and recorded in square centimeters.
|
Postoperative day 7
|
|
Quality of recovery measured with the QoR-15 questionnaire
Zeitfenster: Postoperative day 7
|
Patient-reported quality of recovery will be assessed using the validated Quality of Recovery-15 (QoR-15) questionnaire, which evaluates physical comfort, emotional state, physical independence, psychological support, and pain.
Scores range from 0 to 150, with higher scores indicating better recovery.
