NCT04396652

Brief Summary

This is a prospective randomized double blind controlled study to evaluate the post-operative analgesic effect of adductor canal block (ACB) or peri-articular injection (PAIs) compared to combined adductor canal block and infiltration of the interspace between popliteal artery and the capsule of posterior knee block ( IPACK) in patient undergoing total knee arthroplasty

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Post-operative pain

    Post-operative pain will be assessed at rest and during physiotherapy by Numeric Rating Scale from (0-10) '0' representing "no pain" to '10' representing "worst pain imaginable"

    After the resolution of the effect of spinal anesthesia for 72 hours postoperative

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Postoperative analgesia

    First 24 hours postoperatively

  • Duration of the block

    First 24 hours postoperatively

  • Effect on Motor function

    Each day till the third postoperative day

Study Arms (3)

Adductor canal block (ACB) group

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will receive ACB under ultrasound guidance in which the adductor canal was identified beneath the sartorius muscle and 20 ml of 0.25% Levobupivacaine will be injected in the canal

Procedure: Adductor canal block (ACB) group

Peri-articular injection group

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients in group II will receive intraoperative peri-articular (cocktail) injection and will be performed by a single surgeon. A periarticular cocktail injection consisting of 90 mL of normal saline, 17.5 mL of 0.5% levobupivacaine, 2 mL of ketorolac (30 mg), and 0.5mg (0.5mL) of adrenaline, The total volume of the cocktail will be 110 mL

Procedure: Peri-articular injection group

Adductor canal block and IPACK block group

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will receive ACB under ultrasound guidance in which the adductor canal was identified beneath the sartorius muscle and 20 ml of 0.25% Levobupivacaine will be injected in the canal IPACK block in which The ultrasound probe will be positioned in the popliteal crease, and needle will be inserted into the medial aspect of the knee from anteromedial to posterolateral direction in a plane between the popliteal artery and the femur and 15 ml of 0.25% Levobupivacaine will be injected

Procedure: Adductor canal block and IPACK block group

Interventions

Patients will receive ACB under ultrasound guidance in which the adductor canal was identified beneath the sartorius muscle and 20 ml of 0.25% Levobupivacaine will be injected in the canal
