GENicular Nerve Block in KNEE Arthroplasty (GENKNEE)
GENicular Nerve Block in KNEE Arthroplasty - The GENKNEE Trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether a preoperative genicular nerve block (GNB) can reduce pain after knee replacement surgery in adults with knee osteoarthritis (OA) undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA). It will also assess whether this treatment can reduce opioid use and improve recovery.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Does a preoperative GNB reduce pain during movement 24 hours after surgery compared with placebo?
- Does it reduce opioid consumption and improve physical activity and functional outcomes after surgery?
Researchers will compare patients receiving a GNB to patients receiving a placebo injection to see if the nerve block improves postoperative pain and recovery.
Participants will:
- Be randomly assigned to receive either a GNB or a placebo injection before surgery
- Undergo standard knee replacement surgery and postoperative care
- Report pain levels at regular intervals after surgery
- Complete questionnaires on function, quality of life, and recovery
- Wear an activity monitor to measure physical activity after surgery
- Attend follow-up assessments at 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months

Подробное описание
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a common condition that causes pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. For many patients, total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is an effective treatment to relieve pain and improve function. However, managing pain after surgery remains a major challenge. Poorly controlled pain can delay recovery, reduce mobility, and increase the need for opioid medications, which may have unwanted side effects.
This study investigates whether a specific pain treatment called a genicular nerve block (GNB) can improve pain control after knee replacement surgery. A GNB is a minimally invasive procedure where a local anesthetic is injected around small sensory nerves that supply the knee. While this technique is already used to treat chronic knee pain, its effect when given before surgery is not well established.
In this randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial, patients undergoing primary TKA surgery will be assigned to receive either a GNB or a placebo injection before the operation. Neither the patients nor the healthcare providers involved in their care will know which treatment is given, ensuring unbiased results.
The main goal of the study is to determine whether patients who receive the nerve block experience less pain during movement in the first 24 hours after surgery compared with those who receive placebo. In addition, the study will evaluate whether the nerve block reduces the need for opioid pain medications, improves early physical activity, and leads to better recovery and function in the weeks and months after surgery.
Participants will be followed for three months after surgery. During this period, they will report pain levels, complete questionnaires about their function and quality of life, and wear an activity monitor to measure movement and recovery. The study will also assess possible side effects and complications, as well as the cost-effectiveness of the treatment.
By improving pain management and recovery after TKA, this study aims to contribute to better patient outcomes and more effective use of healthcare resources.

Активный компаратор: Genicular nerve block (GNB)
Ultrasound-guided GNB with 5 mL of 5 mg/mL ropivacaine at the superolateral genicular nerve (SLGN), superomedial genicular nerve (SMGN), and the inferomedial genicular nerve (IMGN) with a total volume of 15 mL.
|
Participants randomized to the intervention group will receive a preoperative ultrasound-guided genicular nerve block prior to surgery. The procedure is performed under sterile conditions by an experienced anesthesiologist using ultrasound guidance to identify anatomical landmarks. A local anesthetic (ropivacaine 5 mg/mL) is injected at three sites targeting the sensory innervation of the knee joint: the superolateral, superomedial, and inferomedial genicular nerves. A volume of 5 mL is administered at each site, for a total of 15 mL. If the accompanying genicular artery is not visualized, the injection is performed at the corresponding bony landmark. The intervention is administered once before surgery in addition to standard perioperative care, including spinal anesthesia, multimodal analgesia, and local infiltration analgesia during surgery.

Плацебо Компаратор: Placebo nerve block
Ultrasound-guided placebo nerve block using 5 mL of 0.9% normal saline at the superolateral genicular nerve (SLGN), superomedial genicular nerve (SMGN), and the inferomedial genicular nerve (IMGN) with a total volume of 15 mL.
