Popliteal Nerve Block for Postoperative Pain Control in Ankle and Hindfoot Reconstruction
November 27, 2018 updated by: University of Tennessee
Popliteal Nerve Block for Postoperative Pain Control in Patients Undergoing Ankle and Hindfoot Reconstruction About the Talus
The purpose of this study is to evaluate outcomes of popliteal nerve blocks for postoperative pain control in patients undergoing ankle and hindfoot reconstruction surgeries.
The following outcomes will be analyzed: length of hospital stay, level of pain control, pain medication use, complications, and patient satisfaction.

Study Population
The study population will be patients undergoing ankle or hindfoot reconstruction about the talus (ankle arthrodesis, subtalar arthrodesis, or ankle arthroplasty) who will be receiving a sciatic nerve block in the popliteal region while in the PACU, following surgery.
Patients will be identified as potential subjects from within the practices of two fellowship-trained foot and ankle orthopaedic surgeons.
Patients will be enrolled in the study by Informed Consent
Description
Inclusion Criteria:
- Adult patients ≥ 18 years old
- Patients undergoing ankle, subtalar, pantalar, triple, or tibiotalocalcaneal arthrodesis (CPT codes 27870, 28715, 28725, or 28740)
- Patients undergoing total ankle arthroplasty (CPT code 27702)
- Patients with a preoperative surgical plan to receive a popliteal nerve block during the postoperative period
- Patients whom can be reasonably expected to understand and comply with patient-reported postoperative data collection and surveys
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patients undergoing an ankle or hindfoot reconstruction procedure whom are medically ineligible to receive a safe popliteal nerve block (i.e. patients with neuropathy)
- Patients with documented substance abuse (i.e. history of narcotic abuse could confound pain outcomes)

Postoperative Popliteal nerve block
All patients in the cohort are receiving a postoperative popliteal nerve block as part of their surgical plan.
Outcomes including length of stay, Visual Analog Scale Scores, narcotic intake, and patient satisfaction will be collected as the intervention.
|
Patients will be instructed to complete journals of pain and narcotic use until postoperative day 10.
On first follow-up visit, patients will complete a patient satisfaction survey.
VAS Pain scores and pain medication use will be collected up to 12 weeks postoperatively.
