Full description

Naldebain, a long-acting analgesic injection, obtained a license from the Taiwan Food and Drug Administration (TFDA) of the Ministry of Health and Welfare on March 6, 2017 to approve a sustained-release long-acting analgesic on the market in Taiwan. At present, it is the only analgesic injection that has an efficacy of up to seven days. The currently approved drug indication is to relieve moderate and severe acute pain after surgery. Pharmacological mechanisms and experiments show that its analgesic effect is equivalent to morphine, but its side effects are much lower than morphine. Because of its special pharmacological mechanism, it has extremely high potential to improve patients undergoing knee replacement surgery. Therefore, this study hopes to use a rigorous double-blind randomized controlled experiment to understand whether the new sustained-release analgesic Naldebain can achieve effective pain relief for patients undergoing knee replacement surgery, and to evaluate the patient's functional recovery status .
