Brief Summary

The purpose of our study is to retrospectively investigate the effect of continuous fascia iliaca compartment block in total knee arthroplasty cases in addition to intraoperative intra-articular injection.

Conditions

Total Knee Arthroplasty (Postoperative Pain)

Keywords

Postoperative; Patient Satisfaction; Pain; Bleeding; Peripheral Nerve Block; Continuous Fascia Iliaca Comparment Block; Intra-articular Injection

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Visual Analog Scale

  The visual analog scale is a validated, subjective measure for acute and chronic pain. Scores are recorded by making a handwritten mark on a 10-cm line that represents a continuum between "no pain" and "worst pain."

  Postoperative 24 hours

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• Rating levels of satisfaction

  Posoperative 24 hours

• Recording of surgical drain output

  Postoperative 24 hours

Study Arms (2)

Control Group

Total knee arthroplasty cases where only intra-articular injection was performed
