About this study

The hypothesis of this study is that in staged bilateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA, magnesium sulfate administered during the perioperative period of the first TKA may decrease pain after the second TKA. It is known that pain is greater in the second TKA than in the first. Therefore, we compared pain of the second TKA between the magnesium and control groups.
