Safety and Efficacy of Cocktail Periarticular Injection for Pain Management in Simultaneous Bilateral Total Knee Arthroplasty- A Prospective, Randomized Trial

We investigated the safety and efficacy of the bilateral periarticular cocktail injection at a reduced dosage in patients undergoing simultaneous bilateral total knee arthroplasty.

Study Overview

Completed

Conditions

Detailed Description

It is hypothesized that intraoperative periarticular injection with cocktail analgesics can reduce postoperative parenteral narcotics use and improve patient satisfaction following total knee arthroplasty.

A prospective, randomized trial is conducted to testify the hypothesis above by recruiting patients who go through simultaneous bilateral TKA and observing their postoperative analgesic consumption, visual analog scores and functional recovery. Potential side-effects of the multimodal drugs is also under observation.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: cocktail analgesia
The local infiltration mixture of ropivacaine, fentanyl, adrenaline is used intra-articularly during operation. The patients in the cocktail analgesia group received an injection of 200mg ropivacaine, 100ug fentanyl, and 0.25mg adrenaline into knee collateral ligaments, posterior aspect of the capsule, quadriceps tendon, patellar tendon, fat pad, periosteum, and synovium, along with PCIA morphine postoperatively.
The patients in the cocktail analgesia group received an injection of 200mg ropivacaine, 100ug fentanyl, and 0.25mg adrenaline into knee collateral ligaments, posterior aspect of the capsule, quadriceps tendon, patellar tendon, fat pad, periosteum, and synovium, along with PCIA morphine postoperatively.
Other Names:
  • Naropin, AstraZeneca
No Intervention: no cocktail injection
The patients in the no cocktail injection group received PCIA morphine postoperatively.
