简要总结
The main purpose of this study is to look at whether meditation techniques can help reduce pain and opioid use after surgery.
详细描述
Background: The Center for Disease Control identified prescription drug abuse as one of the top 5 current health threats in the US. Orthopedic Surgeons rank among the top 3 prescribers of opioid analgesics. Opioids are commonly used following total knee arthroplasty. Peri- operative protocols have been developed to reduce opioid intake however complications related to opioid analgesics remain problematic resulting in increased morbidity and mortality. There is a pressing need for non-narcotic adjuncts that can minimize /eliminate the use of opioids following elective total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Mind-body techniques including mindful medication (MM) have been demonstrated to reduce pain in acute and chronic disease states.
Purpose: To determine whether mindful meditation, in conjunction with standard analgesic protocols, can impact opioid consumption, pain and function following elective primary TKA.
Methods: a prospective, randomized control trial was conducted in patients aged 18-99 with degenerative joint disease of the knee presenting for primary TKA. Controls received standard perioperative analgesia. In additional to standard analgesia, study patients performed Isha-Krya meditation peri-operatively for 2 weeks followed by 4 weeks post operatively. Outcome measures: opioid consumption, time to discontinue opioids, Pain by Visual Analog Score (VAS), Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System 10 (PROMIS-10) Global Health Short Form, Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS)

研究组 & 干预措施
Control
This group will undergo a standardized conventional intra-operative and postoperative analgesia regimen. Anesthetic type and postoperative analgesia will be standardized.
Mindful meditation
Start the MM program 2 weeks preoperatively and continue for 30 days post operatively. Study subjects will meet with the meditation instructor for 30 minutes once, 2 weeks prior to surgery, and daily during hospital admission following total joint replacement (TJR). Throughout the intervention period, subjects will be asked to practice daily 15 minutes twice a day, and record their daily meditation experience. Upon discharge from hospital, subjects will receive telephone follow up sessions with the research assistant weekly until 30 days have elapsed. Subjects will be required to show compliance by recording their daily meditation experience in the Daily Meditation Diary (Post-op). At the end of the meditation intervention period, subjects will be asked to provide their feedback in the Patient Satisfaction Survey. Will undergo a standardized, conventional intra-operative postoperative analgesia regimen in addition to the meditation intervention. Anesthetic type will be standardized
