Postoperative opioid analgesia may cause respiratory depression. We assessed whether following total hip arthroplasty, placebo-adjusted reductions in morphine consumption at 48 hours with parecoxib (47.0%), propacetamol (35.1%) or parecoxib plus propacetamol (67.9%) translated into a reduction in hypoxemic events.
