Hip arthroplasty surgery is frequently performed on elderly patients in the community and it is associated with long-term postoperative hospital stays and high mortality. Postoperative pain management is a multimodal process that includes intravenous and regional anesthesia methods. The ultrasound(US) guided erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is injected with a local anesthetic into the deep fascia of the erector spinae. In the literature, it has been reported that ESPB provides effective analgesia after a hip surgery. The fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB) is a safe method used for postoperative analgesia following hip, femoral, and knee surgeries. The aim of this study is to compare US-guided FICB and ESPB for postoperative analgesia management after total hip prosthesis surgery.
Total knee replacement (TKR) is among the most commonly performed orthopedic procedures, and a six-fold increase in the number of TKR cases world-wide is projected within a decade as the aging of the populations . As the number of the TKR procedures increases, various approaches increasing the satisfaction and comfort of the patient and the surgeon are of interest in order to provide improved pain management, in-hospital stay, and recovery with the development of modern anesthesiology and pain management techniques.This study aimed to investigate the clinical effect of ultrasound-guided high fascia iliaca compartment block(H-FICB) in patients undergoing knee arthroscopy and to compare it with the normal method which is femoral nerve block combined with a sciatic nerve block to choose the better way. A double-blind, randomized controlled trial was conducted with 44 patients, aged 18-65 years, ASA I-III, who were scheduled to undergo arthroscopic knee surgery in our hospital were selected, the patients were divided into Group A and Group B by random number table method, with 22 patients in each group. Group A was subjected to the H-FICB under ultrasound guidance before general anesthesia, given 0.375% ropivacaine+0.5ug/kg Dexmedetomidine 30 ml. Group B was subjected to the H-FICB under ultrasound guidance before general anesthesia, given 0.375% ropivacaine+1ug/kg Dexmedetomidine 30 ml. The mini-mental State Examination was used to assess all the patients' primary cognitive status one day before surgery. The initial acting time and the degrees of sensory block and motor block were recorded after the nerve block was completed. Perioperative variables were recorded to be compared. The investigators used the visual analog scale to assess patients' pain degree with postoperative, recorded the occurrence of adverse events such as postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV), delayed emergence from anesthesia, and respiratory depression. The confusion assessment method was used to assess whether patients experienced delirium.
Comparison between the pain scores after total knee arthroplasty in patients receiving triple injection peri-sartorius (TIPS) block versus femoral nerve block (FNB)
ABSTRACT Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of ultrasonography (USG)-guided Baker's cyst (BC) aspiration in the treatment of BC. Design: A total of 40 patients presented to our polyclinic with the complaints of swelling at the back of the knee. The 40 patients were randomly divided into two groups: (I) aspiration group (n=20) and (II) control group (n=20). In the aspiration group, BC content was aspirated percutaneously under USG guidance, whereas no aspiration was performed in the control group. Additionally, the participants in both groups were trained on how to perform exercises and were also recommended to practice cold treatment for 15 min both in the morning and evening for 2 weeks. All the patients were followed up with USG at the first and third months, VAS, WOMAC, NHP , Lysholm and Cincinnati. The success of the treatment was demonstrated by the decrease in the width, length and area of the BCs and Lysholm, Cincinnati ,VAS, WOMAC and NHP scores.
The use of periarticular injection and adductor canal block are well-established techniques used both in combination or in isolation in the management of postoperative pain for patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty. The aim of this study is to investigate whether combining these two techniques have an added benefit, compared to periarticular injection alone, with respect to quality of recovery, functional return, discharge readiness, and short and long term post-operative narcotic use.
The research team wants to investigate if an intraosseous injection (directly into the bone marrow) of morphine during primary total knee replacement helps with post-operative pain following primary total knee replacement surgery. For this study patients will either be randomized into one of two groups: Group 1: Receives an intraosseous injection of morphine (mixed with standard antibiotics) during their primary total knee replacement or Group 2: Serves as the control group and only receives an intraosseous injection of antibioitics during their total knee replacement. The research team will have patients fill out a symptom journal for two weeks following their surgery to measure pain levels and pain medication consumed throughout the day as well as nausea and other symptoms. Additionally, the research team will take blood samples both intraoperatively and post-operatively (10 hours post-op) to measure the level of inflammatory markers as well as morphine.
Randomized controlled single blind trial for the evaluation of the treatment of the surgical wound healing process with Platelet-Rich-Fibrin compared to the gold standard (without Platelet-Rich-Fibrin) in patients undergoing knee replacement.
