Comparison of Intra-articular Dexmedetomidine and Magnesium in Postoperative Pain

Arthroscopic meniscus surgeries are the most frequent orthopedic procedures. The objective of the study is to compare the effects of intraarticular local anesthetic and adjuvant (dexmedetomidine vs magnesium) combinations in postoperative pain and analgesic requirement. The investigators' hypothesis is adjuvants added to the local anesthetics decreases the total local anesthetic dose, provides more effective pain relief according to local anesthetic only, and decreases the postoperative systemic non-steroidal analgesic and opioid doses.
