Opioid Use Following Primary Unilateral Total Knee Arthroplasty Varies With Age by Shah Fahad, MD, Jason A. Bryman, MD, Michael A. Behun, MD, Maryam Salimi, MD, Olivia Vyge, MS, Nina Rosen, BS, Todd Miner, MD, Jason M. Jennings, MD, DPT

“…Conclusions: Younger patients demonstrated higher postoperative opioid use following primary TKA; however, this was likely influenced by confounding factors such as preoperative opioid use, nicotine, THC, and antidepressant use. While age alone may not independently predict increased opioid consumption, these findings highlight the importance of identifying and managing modifiable risk factors to optimize pain control. …”
