Summary

Comparison of continuous adductor canal block to continuous femoral nerve block in patients after total knee arthroplasty.

All patients will be anesthetized with spinal anesthesia. Continuous infusion of ropivacaine with a catheter implemented to the adductor canal or next to the femoral nerve.

The observed goals: pain intensity, the beginning and quality of rehabilitation.

Conditions

  • Pain, Acute
  • Knee Arthropathy
  • Postoperative Pain
  • Mobility Limitation

Interventions

PROCEDURE

continuous anesthesia of adductor canal

After subarachnoid anesthesia, but before the beginning of surgery, a catheter will be implemented to the adductor canal and infusion of 5 mL/h of 0.2 % ropivacaine will be started.

PROCEDURE

continuous anesthesia of femoral nerve

After subarachnoid anesthesia, but before the beginning of surgery, a catheter will be implemented next to the femoral nerve (below inguinal ligament) and infusion of 5 mL/h of 0.2 % ropivacaine will be started.

PROCEDURE

Spinal anesthesia

Before the beginning of surgery all patients will be anesthetised with 0.5 % hyperbaric bupivacaine (Marcaine Heavy), 2.0 - 2.5 mL solution. Pencil point spinal needle will be used.
