Filter by:The goal of this interventional clinical trial is to assess opioid consumption 24-48 hrs post anesthesia block among patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty. The main question it aims to answer is: 1. Is there a difference in opioid consumption 24-48 hours post block administration among patients that receive an adductor canal catheter (ACC) versus adductor canal block (ACB)? Participants will be: - Randomized to receive an adductor canal catheter (ACC) or a sham adductor canal catheter. - Asked to use the Diagnotes application to communicate with the pain doctor while the catheter is in place. - Follow up for up to 6 months post-operation. Researchers will compare the interventional group (ACC) to the control group (sham ACC + ACB) to see if there is difference in opioid consumption and chronic pain at 6 months post-operation.
The goal of this observational study is to determine the effect of adding adductor canal block to popliteal sciatic nerve block on patient-surgeon satisfaction, intraoperative sedation need, tourniquet pain, return time of motor block, and postoperative pain in patients undergoing hallux valgus correction surgery. The main question it aims to answer are: - Does peroperative pain decrease? - Do patient-surgeon satisfaction increase? The patients were divided into two groups, the Popliteal Sciatic Block (PSB) group, and the Popliteal Sciatic Block + Adductor Canal Block (PSB + ACB) group.
The Quality of Recovery 40 (QoR-40) is a multidimensional questionnaire that addresses many aspects of postoperative recovery. The QoR-40 has been used many times to measure the recovery of patients after different surgeries, and this questionnaire seems to be a reliable tool for evaluating anesthesia-related techniques, including regional anesthesia. Arthroscopic knee surgery causes moderate to severe postoperative pain for most patients. Various methods such as different systemic drugs, peripheral or central blocks and intra-articular injections have been developed for the effective, safe and long-term control of this pain. In recent years, it has been shown that regional anesthesia techniques reduce the need for opioids in orthopedic ambulatory surgeries and accelerate recovery and discharge. However, there is no consensus on which is the best approach among these various regional techniques. However, adductor canal block (ACB) and intrathecal morphine (ITM) are the preferred regional methods in the perioperative pain management of knee surgery. In this study, it was aimed to test the effectiveness of intrathecal morphine or adductor canal block added to spinal anesthesia on the quality of recovery in patients undergoing arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery.
The ideal pain management for knee surgery should provide excellent analgesia while minimizing opioid consumption and allowing early mobilization and rehabilitation. The use of the continuous technique in ACB allows the delivery of a larger quantity of local anaesthetic into the adductor canal than in the single-shot technique. The usual approach for ultrasound-guided ACB catheter insertion is through short-axis in-plane approach in which the ultrasound transducer is applied horizontally over the femoral artery and saphenous nerve. In this approach, the catheter is inserted through a 90-degree angulation with the nerve which might make the catheter insertion difficult. In the new oblique position, the catheter will be inserted in a less than 90-degree angulation. This study speculates that decreasing the angle of catheter insertion will make catheter insertion easier and faster.
The investigators believed the analgesic efficacy of adductor canal block on patients receiving total knee arthroplasty. However, the analgesic effects of different delivery regimens and duration of effects are variable. The investigators hypothesize that using continuous infusion and shorter interval bolus of local anesthetics to perform adductor canal block will reduce pain scale and opioid consumption in patients receiving total knee arthroplasty compared with longer interval bolus of local anesthetics.
Total knee arthroplasty surgery is associated with severe postoperative pain and adequate pain management is necessary for early postoperative mobilization and rehabilitation. Although good postoperative pain control may be achieved by continuous epidural anesthesia or femoral nerve block, both methods have adverse effects such as muscle weakness, which may delay postoperative mobilization.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether liposomal bupivacaine is superior to normal bupivacaine in terms of providing better pain control postoperatively after total knee arthroplasty.
This study evaluate the efficacy of adding popliteal sciatic nerve block with low concentration bupivacaine and dexamethasone to abductor canal block for total knee arthroplasty in patient with NSAIDs prescribing precaution. Half of participants will receive popliteal sciatic nerve block, abductor canal block and periarticular injection, while the other half will receive a sham block, abductor canal block and periarticular injection.
There has been dispute about the location at which the adductor canal block should be performed (3-6). Two Common approaches have been used for ultrasound guided adductor canal blocks with the 'point of entry' being: 1. Point A: midway point between the ASIS and base of patella 2. Point B: Point which is 2-3 cm proximal to the site where the femoral artery becomes the popliteal artery as it traverses away from the sartorius muscle towards the femur at the adductor hiatus (2) We want to determine ultrasound anatomy in healthy volunteers by: 1. Measuring the distance between Point A and Point B 2. Studying the ultrasound anatomy at Point A and B - Determine their location with respect to the adductor canal and femoral triangle. This will allow us to determine which is the best site for performing an adductor canal block
Patients undergoing Primary Total Knee Arthroplasty will be randomized to receive either multimodal single injection adductor canal block with sham infusion catheter or continuous infusion of local anesthetic (control) for postoperative analgesia. Primary end point is pain scores at 30 hours post performance of block procedure.
