NCT03697538 · Status: TERMINATED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 51

Last updated 2022-09-07

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This is a prospective, randomized, blinded study with a parallel design and an allocation ratio of 1:1 for the treatment groups. The investigators seek to determine if femoral nerve block (FNB) improves the quality of recovery and improve postoperative analgesia compared with adductor canal block (ACBs) for patients undergoing revision total knee arthroplasty.

Conditions

  • Revision Total Knee Arthroplasty

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Nerve Block for pain control post-revision total knee arthroplasty

A 20g catheter will be introduced and advanced 2-3 cm beyond the tip of the needle under ultrasound visualization. After needle withdrawal, catheter placement will be checked by visualizing local anesthetic spread under ultrasound. 0.5% ropivacaine will be used for catheter placement. At the conclusion of surgery, the catheters will be connected to a pump that will infuse ropivacaine 0.2% at 6 mL/hr with a patient controlled bolus of 5mL and a lockout of 30 minutes.
