# TKA perioperative analgesia — reader’s guide

> **Educational work by a pre-medical student — not medical advice.** Not a clinical protocol, prescription, or patient handout, and not for patient care. See [DISCLAIMER](DISCLAIMER.md).

Updated 29 October 2026. A narrative evidence map with regional anesthesia, recovery and synthetic case material.

## Read in this order

1. [Start with the main work](George-TKA-Scoping-Review-v2.md).
2. [Inspect the supporting review record](PUBLICATION_REVIEW.md).
3. Read the [authorship and review status](AUTHORSHIP_AND_REVIEW.md), then use the [README](README.md) for the full repository contents.

[Open the paired synthetic cases](APPLIED_CASES.md). The shared anesthesia guide provides additional educational context; it is not an implemented controller capability or an approved patient-care protocol.

## Reading focus

Evidence populations, recovery outcomes and the limits of screening, extraction and pooling claims.

## Scope

The retained filename says Scoping-Review; the current work is a selected-source narrative map.

Source interpretation, synthetic examples and implemented software behavior have different evidentiary roles. The supporting review record states what was actually checked.
