Clinical Trial Summary

A comparison of two pain control methods - the combination of Adductor Canal Block (ACB)/Infiltration of the interspace between the popliteal artery and the capsule of the posterior knee (IPACK) versus the Periarticular Injection (PAI)/ Infiltration of the interspace between the popliteal artery and the capsule of the posterior knee (IPACK) - in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty. dexketoprofen and paracetamol will be added to both groups and multimodal analgesia will be applied. Primary outcome is NRS pain scores with ambulation on postoperative day one (24 hours post-block administration).


Clinical Trial Description

Postoperative pain after total knee arthroplasty is serious and difficult to management. Multimodal analgesia recommended for the pain management. For these reasons, we planned a study involving two multimodal analgesia regimens. Patients who will undergo total knee arthroplasty will receive preemptive oral analgesic (dexketofrofen) 1 hour before the operation. Surgery will be initiated after spinal anesthesia is applied to the patients. Two pain control methods - the combination of Adductor Canal Block (ACB)/Infiltration of the interspace between the popliteal artery and the capsule of the posterior knee (IPACK) versus the Periarticular Injection (PAI)/ IPACK- will be applied at the end of the surgery. dexketoprofenand paracetamol will be added to both groups and multimodal analgesia will be applied. Primary outcome is NRS pain scores with ambulation on postoperative day one (24 hours post-block administration). ;
