NCT04702282

Brief Summary

The aim of this study was to investigate the pharmacokinetics of free and total ropivacaine after unilateral and bilateral TKA. A population model was successfully built and peak free ropivacaine concentration stayed below previously proposed toxic thresholds in patients undergoing unilateral as well as bilateral TKA receiving LIA with high dose ropivacaine.

Study Population

Thirteen unilateral TKA and fifteen bilateral TKA patients were included in the study. All patients were operated in a well-described fast-track setup without use of drains or tourniquet. A standard midline skin incision with a medial para-patellar capsulotomy was used. All patients were operated with cemented CR components. In bilateral TKA cases, both knees were operated in one setting with the left knee always being operated first, and the second knee being operated sequentially in the same setting immediately following closure of the first knee.

You may qualify if:

  • Patients undergoing unilateral TKA (n=13) and bilateral TKA (n=15) receiving LIA according to standard protocol.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients not receiving LIA Revision TKA
