Determining the Role of Periarticular Multimodal Analgesia in Decreasing Perioperative Pain in Tibial Plateau Fractures

Name
117178
Description
The investigators goal of the proposed research study is to determine the effectiveness of periarticular multimodal analgesia in the setting of tibial plateau fractures. Effectiveness of the multimodal analgesia is defined as lower pain scores.
