Summary

Knee surgeries are associated with severe postoperative pain. Improper pain management affects patients' psychological status with prolongation of hospital stay time and rehabilitation period, with the possibility of progression of the acute pain to chronic pain (McCartney CJ, Nelligan K., 2014). Many Pain management options following these surgeries are available: non-opioid analgesics, opioids and regional anesthesia techniques (epidural and peripheral nerve block). Multi-modal analgesia is considered the best option for pain management in knee surgeries. As non-opioid analgesics alone are not effective enough while opioids alone are associated with many risk factors: nausea, vomiting, decrease intestinal motility and respiratory depression with possibility of addiction (Goode VM, Morgan B, et al, 2019)

Conditions

  • Comparing the Analgesic Outcome by ( 4 in 1 Block ) & ( Adductor Canal Block )

Interventions

PROCEDURE

adductor canal block

patients will receive an injection of 30 ml of .25% of Bupivacaine including 4mg of dexamethasone at a point anterior to the femoral artery, deep to the sartorius muscle (adductor canal block).

PROCEDURE

4 in one block

patients will receive an injection of 30 ml of .25% of Bupivacaine including 4mg dexamethasone at the adductor hiatus where the descending genicular artery branches from superficial femoral artery (4 in one block).
