Intervention / TreatmentIntervention / Treatment |
|---|---|

Active Comparator: Single-injection ACB combined with IV-PCA morphine
Allocation of which participant is to receive single-injection adductor canal block combined with intravenous morphine patient-controlled analgesia (IV-morphine PCA) is determined by randomization, using a computer-generated random sequence and opaque sealed envelopes.
After completion of the TKA surgery and surgical suturing, adductor canal block will be performed by an anesthesiologist.
Under ultrasound guidance, the femoral artery and the saphenous nerve are identified in the middle one-third of the thigh, deep to the sartorious muscle in the adductor canal.
The sartorious and adductor muscles form the roof and the floor of the canal, respectively.
Following skin infiltration, 20 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine with 1:400000 epinephrine is injected through a 3-inch, 23-gauge, short bevel block needle.
Finally, the IV-morphine PCA will be connected to the intravenous catheter of the patient for postoperative pain management.
|
Pain scores will be assessed with numerical rating scale at both rest and motion on both knees.
For the functional assessment both before and after TKA surgery.
Rehabilitation physiotherapy will be assessed with knee range of motion (both active and maximal passive), muscle power at abduction and adduction, single leg stance test, six-minute walk test for assessment of the functional recovery of both knees.

Active Comparator: Continuous adductor canal infusion combined with intravenous NSAID
Allocation of which participant is to receive continuous adductor canal infusion in combination with intermittent intravenous non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) is determined by randomization, using a computer-generated random sequence and opaque sealed envelopes.
After completion of the TKA surgery and surgical suturing, a peripheral nerve catheter will be implanted into adductor canal by an anesthesiologist.
Under ultrasound guidance, the femoral artery and the saphenous nerve are identified in the middle one-third of the thigh, deep to the sartorious muscle in the adductor canal.
The sartorious and adductor muscles form the roof and the floor of the canal, respectively.
Following the peripheral nerve catheter is implanted, 20 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine with 1:400000 epinephrine is injected through the catheter.
Intravenous tenoxicam 20 mg for a total amount of 3 doses at 24-hour interval after surgery will be added in the postoperative pain management.

Pain scores will be assessed with numerical rating scale at both rest and motion on both knees.
For the functional assessment both before and after TKA surgery.
Rehabilitation physiotherapy will be assessed with knee range of motion (both active and maximal passive), muscle power at abduction and adduction, single leg stance test, six-minute walk test for assessment of the functional recovery of both knees.
