Primary knee arthroplasty by total prosthesis is a painful surgery, performed on patients with advanced gonarthrosis (stage III), thus already presenting hyperalgesia and hyperalgesia and allodynia. This terrain makes the risk of postoperative hyperalgesia but also of persistent postoperative risk of persistent post-surgical pain.
Nefopam is a non-opioid centrally acting analgesic drug used as a part of multimodal analgesia. The opioid-sparing effect of nefopam is still controversial across various surgical procedures. In France nefopam is only available as a parenteral formulation; however it is often administered orally. There is currently no study addressing the efficacy of oral nefopam for the postoperative pain management including pain prevention.
The investigators conduct a prospective, double-blinded randomized controlled study with the main objective to examine the effect of perioperative orally administered nefopam on postoperative pain after a total knee arthroplasty. Secondary objectives include the quantification of wound allodynia, analysis of adverse events, clinical outcomes, and a pharmacokinetic study of orally given nefopam (plasma and cerebrospinal fluid dosage).

Nefopam has a distinct bitter taste. A taste masking compound non interfering with chemical properties of the drug is used in both arms. Orally given mixture (nefopam or placebo) is prepared by an independent nurse in a separate location and given to a patient in patient's ward.
| Placebo | Drug | Oral administration of a placebo 2 hours before the surgery following by one administration each 8h for 24h. Oral placebo is prepared ex-tempore with a taste masking compound by a non-charge nurse following detailed instructions |
|
The Punctuate pain intensity is determined using a Von Frey monofilament n°5,88 (60 g/mm2) and a pain scale (0 = no pain, 10 = the worst pain), on both the operated knee and the contralateral knee 24 hours after incision.
| 24 hours after the surgery |
| Hyperalgesia - Allodynia zone | The extension of allodynia around the wound is measured using a calibrated brush (100 mNewton) 24 hours after incision. | 24 hours after the surgery |
| Pain intensity | Self-reported pain intensity at rest and while moving the operated leg. Each item is scored on a scale ranging from 0 to 10 (0 = no pain, 10 = the worst pain) | 24 hours after the surgery and 3 months after the surgery |
| Self reported safety outcomes | Nausea and vomiting, unusual sweating, drowsiness, hallucinations, nightmares, palpitations, irritability | 24 hours after the surgery |
| Measures Safety outcomes | The incidence of acute urinary retention, and mean cardiac frequency (calculated from the recorded cardiac frequency 3 times a day) are recorded, confusion, acute angle glaucoma. | 24 hours after the surgery |
| Pharmacokinetics:Plasmatic and cerebrospinal fluid concentration of nefopam | Plasmatic and cerebrospinal fluid concentration of nefopam is measured. | 2 hours after the first oral administration of nefopam or Placebo. |
| Pharmacokinetics:Plasmatic and cerebrospinal fluid concentration of nefopam-beta-D-glucuronide | Plasmatic and cerebrospinal fluid concentration of nefopam-beta-D-glucuronide is measured. | 2 hours after the first oral administration of nefopam or Placebo. |
| Pharmacokinetics:Plasmatic and cerebrospinal fluid concentration of nefopam-N-oxyde | Plasmatic and cerebrospinal fluid concentration of nefopam-N-oxyde is measured. | 2 hours after the first oral administration of nefopam or Placebo. |
| Pharmacokinetics:Plasmatic and cerebrospinal fluid concentration of nefopam-N-demethyl | Plasmatic and cerebrospinal fluid concentration of nefopam-N-demethyl is measured. | 2 hours after the first oral administration of nefopam or Placebo. |
| Pharmacokinetics:Plasmatic and cerebrospinal fluid concentration of Nefopam hydrochloride | Plasmatic and cerebrospinal fluid concentration of Nefopam hydrochloride is measured. | 2 hours after the first oral administration of nefopam or Placebo. |
| Persistent postoperative pain - DN4 (or DN2 by phone) | The DN4 questionnaire (or DN2 questionnaire if the visit is realized by phone) ("Douleurs Neuropathiques 4/2" = Neuropathic pain 4/2 in french) is recorded to investigate persistent postoperative pain defined as pain on the operated knee 3 months after the surgery. | 3 months after the surgery |
| Persistent postoperative pain - DN4 | The DN2 questionnaire ("Douleurs Neuropathiques 2" = Neuropathic pain 2 in french, abbreviated DN4 questionnaire) is recorded by phone if the 3 months visit is realized out of time.
