NCT03661645
Post-operative Methylprednisolone Taper Course for Orthopedic Surgery
The clinical trial is a prospective randomized control trial of a group of patients undergoing surgical management of common orthopedic pathologies including fractures of the upper extremity and shoulder arthroplasty; arthritis surgeries (ex. carpometacarpal arthroplasty), release of compressive neuropathies (ex. carpal tunnel surgery), tendon procedures (ex. tendon repair), patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty for osteoarthritis of the hip or total knee arthroplasty for osteoarthritis of the knee. Patients will be assigned randomly to one of two treatment arms: (1) single intraoperative dose of 10 mg intravenous dexamethasone (control group, IV dexamethasone is standard of care) or (2) single intraoperative dose of 10 mg intravenous dexamethasone followed with a 6-day oral methylprednisolone taper course (Active Group). The purpose of this study is to study the efficacy of a post-operative course of glucocorticoids (GCs like Methylprednisolone) on pain, nausea and range of motion after surgical management of common orthopedic upper extremity pathologies, including fractures of the upper extremity and shoulder arthroplasty and patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty for osteoarthritis of the hip or total knee arthroplasty for osteoarthritis of the knee.
