Included patients had uncomplicated arthroscopic ACL reconstruction
Subjects were to have a Baseline pain intensity of ≥ 50 mm as measured on a 0 - 100mm visual analogue scale (VAS) and moderate to severe pain on a categorical scale by 23:00 hours on the day of surgery and prior to being discharged from the surgical facility
Subjects could not have received any medication or additional procedures that would confound the interpretation of the study results.
You may not be if
the patient was admitted to or retained in the surgical center/hospital for \>23 hours;
the patient underwent any other surgical procedure, along with the orthopedic procedure, that was expected to produce a greater degree of surgical trauma than the orthopedic procedure alone;
the patient used conventional nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors, or tramadol during the 6 hours preceding surgery, during surgery, or subsequent to the end of surgery;
the patient received oxaprozin or piroxicam within 1 week prior to randomization;
the patient had a pain pump or indwelling catheter during surgery that administered local or intraarticular anesthetics or narcotics at the index joint, or had such an intra-articular injection at the end of surgery;
the patient had been treated with patient-controlled analgesia or NSAIDs subsequent to the end of anesthesia;
