How to use R.E.C.K

 R.E.C.K solution is a sterile solution and comes in a pre-filled, ready-to-administer container to save time and reduce waste. OR team members can simply decant the product into a sterile container and draw it up into their preferred combination of syringe and needle. They can then administer R.E.C.K as a periarticular injection.

An injection of ropivacaine, epinephrine, clonidine and ketorolac (R.E.C.K) is used as part of a multimodal pain regimen as a way to minimize postoperative pain and support patients’ recovery from their surgery.  Poor pain management can increase the cost of care, lead to lengthier hospital stays, reduce functional outcomes, result in chronic pain syndromes, side effects from chronic analgesic and opioid use. Please see this The Journal of Arthroplasty  prospective, randomized, double-blind study for appropriate use of R.E.C.K.

Multimodal Pain Management Multimodal therapy is the preferred approach to postoperative pain control for knee replacement surgery, meaning practitioners use Local Infiltrative Analgesia (LIA) cocktail formulations such as R.E.C.K to minimize pain. For example, patients can receive a combination of celecoxib, hydrocodone, gabapentin, acetaminophen, Solu-Cortef, oxycodone, tramadol, ketorolac, and/or hydromorphone.
