NCT03774966

Brief Summary

This study evaluates the addition of the IPACK block to the adductor canal block and catheter in the pain management of total knee arthroplasty. Half of participants will receive the adductor canal block and catheter with the IPACK block, while the other half will receive the adductor canal block and catheter only.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Opioid consumption in milligram morphine equivalents

    Total opioid consumption will be calculated for postoperative day 0-3 ( postoperative day 0 is the day of the surgery and is the first day of the time frame and postoperative day 3 is the 4th day) and total hospital stay. Opioid amount will be converted to morphine equivalents (milligram) for comparison.

    4 days

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Visual analog pain scores

    4 days

  • Distance ambulated during physical therapy

    4 days

Study Arms (2)

Adductor Canal Block + Catheter

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Adductor canal block: 15 mL of 0.25% ropivicaine, adductor canal catheter: 6 mL/hr of 0.2% ropivacaine

Procedure: Adductor canal block + catheter
