Local Infiltration Analgesia Following Total Knee Arthroplasty — RAK-total  

Postoperative Pain Clinical Trial

Official title:
Local Infiltration Analgesia With Ropivacaine, Ketorolac and Epinephrine Intra- and Postoperatively in Total Knee Arthroplasty

Clinical Trial Summary

The primary aim of this study is to evaluate if intra- and postoperative administration of ropivacaine, ketorolac and epinephrine into the operating field would affect morphine consumption. Secondary end-points are hospital stay, pain intensity and side effects. In an attempt to assess the safety of this technique, knee function and patient satisfaction scores are assessed up to 3 months after surgery.

Clinical Trial Description

Postoperative pain is often severe following knee arthroplasty. Recently, a local infiltration analgesia (LIA) technique was developed by Drs Kerr and Kohan in Sydney, Australia. With this LIA-technique, a long-acting local anesthetic (ropivacaine), a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (ketorolac), and epinephrine are infiltrated intraoperatively and via an intraarticular catheter postoperatively. We ahve completed a study on unicompartmental knee arthroplasty and the present study is investigating total knee arthroplasties.

The primary aim of this study is to evaluate if intra- and postoperative administration of ropivacaine, ketorolac and epinephrine into the operating field would affect morphine consumption. Secondary end-points are hospital stay, pain intensity and side effects. In an attempt to assess the safety of this technique, knee function and patient satisfaction scores are assessed up to 3 months after surgery. ;
