Summary

This trial was established to assess efficiency of IPACK block in combination with ACB in relieving postoperative pain , particularly posterior knee pain and providing early rehabilitation after TKA in comparison with ACB alone .

Conditions

  • Postoperative Pain
  • Motor Activity

Interventions

PROCEDURE

spinal anesthesia

spinal anesthesia using 15 mg 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine in the sitting position at L3-4 or L4-5 intervertebral space.

PROCEDURE

Adductor Canal Block

local anesthetic spread around the saphenous nerve in the adductor canal ultrasound guided using 22 Gag spinal needle with injection of 15ml 0.25% bupivacaine with addition of 2mg dexamethasone and 2.5mcg /ml epinephrine as an adjuvant to prolong its action.

PROCEDURE

interspace between Popliteal artery and capsule of knee (IPACK) block

ultrasound guided Local anesthetic infiltration over the posterior aspect of the femur underneath the popliteal artery targeting the genicular nerves which are the articular branches of tibial and common peroneal nerves, posterior branches of the obturator nerve, and medial genicular nerve using 22Gag spinal needle injecting 20ml 0.25%bupivacaine with addition of 2mg dexamethasone and 2.5mcg /ml epinephrine as an adjuvant to prolong its action.
