Catheter-based Peripheral Regional Anesthesia After Total Knee Arthroplasty

NCT03372265 ↗

Phase 4 Completed 111 enrolled Nordsjaellands Hospital
RandomizedParallel-groupQuadruple-blindTreatment

Summary

BACKGROUND Total knee arthroplasty can be severely painful, and peripheral regional anesthesia is highly recommended as part of the perioperative pain treatment. Whether catheter-based techniques are better than single injection techniques are debatable. Furthermore, in catheter-based techniques, whether a low-dose automated, periodic infusion can produce similar analgesic effectiveness compared to a conventional, high dose, continuous infusion has never been explored. AIM Comparison of the analgesic effectiveness of a low-dose automated, periodic infusion, a conventional continuous infusion and patient-controlled boluses only in catheter-based adductor canal blocks for patients undergoing total knee arthrplasty.
