Multimodal Analgesia Methods in Patients Undergoing IPACK Block in Knee Arthroplasty

December 25, 2019 updated by: ilkay baran akkuş, Ankara Diskapi Training and Research Hospital

Evaluation of Multimodal Analgesia Methods in Patients Who Underwent IPACK Block in Total Knee Arthroplasty

A comparison of two pain control methods - the combination of Adductor Canal Block (ACB)/Infiltration of the interspace between the popliteal artery and the capsule of the posterior knee (IPACK) versus the Periarticular Injection (PAI)/ Infiltration of the interspace between the popliteal artery and the capsule of the posterior knee (IPACK) - in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty. dexketoprofen and paracetamol will be added to both groups and multimodal analgesia will be applied. Primary outcome is NRS pain scores with ambulation on postoperative day one (24 hours post-block administration).

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Postoperative pain after total knee arthroplasty is serious and difficult to management. Multimodal analgesia recommended for the pain management. For these reasons, we planned a study involving two multimodal analgesia regimens. Patients who will undergo total knee arthroplasty will receive preemptive oral analgesic (dexketofrofen) 1 hour before the operation. Surgery will be initiated after spinal anesthesia is applied to the patients. Two pain control methods - the combination of Adductor Canal Block (ACB)/Infiltration of the interspace between the popliteal artery and the capsule of the posterior knee (IPACK) versus the Periarticular Injection (PAI)/ IPACK- will be applied at the end of the surgery. dexketoprofenand paracetamol will be added to both groups and multimodal analgesia will be applied. Primary outcome is NRS pain scores with ambulation on postoperative day one (24 hours post-block administration).

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
NRS Pain Scores
Time Frame: 24 hours post block administration
NRS Pain scores with ambulation 24 hours post block administration.All patients' postoperative pain numerical rating scale (NRS-numeric rating scale; 0 = absence of pain, 10 = unbearable pain) will be recorded in both groups.
24 hours post block administration

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
NRS at Rest and with movement
Time Frame: 24 hours on Post-Operative Day 1
NRS at rest and with movement at different intervals. All patients' postoperative pain numerical rating scale (NRS-numeric rating scale; 0 = absence of pain, 10 = unbearable pain) will be recorded in both groups.
