Summary
The main objective is to demonstrate that postoperative analgesia by IV oxycodone (compared
to morphine IV) reduces opioid-related adverse events (nausea, vomiting, pruritus,
respiratory depression, urinary retention, allergies, hallucination) by 50% in adult patients
operated on for prosthetic hip surgery.
