Predictors of subacute postoperative pain after total knee arthroplasty: A secondary analysis of two randomized trials.
Methods for identifying high-pain responders undergoing total knee arthroplasty remain important to improve individualized pain management. This study aimed at evaluating pre- and perioperative predictors of pain on Days 2-7 after total knee arthroplasty. ⋯ This study investigated factors associated with pain after total knee arthroplasty beyond the immediate postoperative period. The analysis revealed significant associations between preoperative pain levels and, particularly, pain 24 h postoperatively, with subsequent subacute pain the following week. These findings can assist in identifying patients who would benefit from enhanced, individualized analgesic interventions to facilitate postoperative recovery.
