Zolpidem, FICB + DEX, and perioperative methylprednisolone are effective interventions to improve sleep quality after THA. Topical cannabis, topical essential oil, and melatonin did not improve sleep quality. No effective sleep interventions for TKA patients were identified. Improving sleep quality remains a potential therapeutic goal to improve patient satisfaction after TJA. Continued investigation on this topic is therefore necessary.
