Optimal Anesthetic for Corticosteroid Injections for Knee Osteoarthritis

This study is looking at the best way to give Kenalog injections for knee pain caused by osteoarthritis. Researchers want to see if adding an anesthetic (pain-numbing medicine) to the Kenalog, and how much anesthetic, affects pain relief and how well patients tolerate the injection. They will measure your pain right before, immediately after, and two minutes after the injection. The study aims to find out how long the pain relief lasts and how comfortable the injection is for you. You may be able to join if you are 18 or older, have moderate knee osteoarthritis (Kellgren Lawrence Stage II or III), and have not used narcotic pain medicine in the last 6 months. The study is currently recruiting 75 participants.

Study design
This is an interventional study, meaning participants will receive a specific treatment. It plans to enroll 75 participants.
What's involved
You would receive a single Kenalog injection during a scheduled clinical visit. Your pain levels will be measured at specific times around the injection.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Pain relief will be measured at various time points after the injection to understand its longevity, but a specific follow-up duration is not provided.
