knee joint tissue of chronic arthritis patients following intraarticular (i.a.) injections of morphine, a standard steroid or placebo.\n\nThe primary hypothesis is that i.a. morphine results in significantly lower pain scores and supplemental analgesic consumption than placebo during the first week after injection, an efficacy comparable to standard i.a. steroid (triamcinolone) medication.',

Benjamin Franklin in collaboration with several rheu-matology and orthopedic practices in the Berlin area. Ultra-sound guided synovial needle biopsy and interventions will only be performed at CBF.\n\nEligible patients will be treated with either morphine 3 mg i.a., NaCl 0.9% i.a. or triamcinolone 40 mg i.a. at Baseline. The entire study period will be 2 weeks per patient.\n\nAssessment of the primary outcome parameter will be at week 1.
