What this Trial Is About
Tourniquet, a compressing device, otherwise its use in intravenous regional anesthesia, is commonly used in particular orthopedic surgeries. From the previous documented effectiveness and safety of intravenous (IV) administration of ketorolac in the circulatory-isolated limb as a part of intravenous regional anesthesia; we hypothesized that in orthopedic surgeries done with tourniquet, intravenous (IV) administration of ketorolac after tourniquet inflation, will act as intravenous regional analgesia. So, it will prolong the postoperative analgesic duration as a primary outcome.
