Adductor canal block in total knee arthroplasty: a scoping review of the literature [PDF]

BJA Open
Background: An adductor canal block is commonly used to reduce pain after total knee arthroplasty. Practice varies in terms of site of injection, local anaesthetic, and adjuncts used, with poor consensus in relation to the best approach.

Comparison of IPACK block with adductor canal block vs adductor canal block alone for post operative analgesia following arthroscopic knee surgeries [PDF]

Revista Chilena de Anestesia
Background: Arthroscopic knee surgeries are performed across various patient groups, emphasizing fasttrack recovery with early ambulation. Due to associated muscle weakness, traditional analgesic techniques like neuraxial and proximal nerve blocks are less favored.

Dexamethasone as an additive to bupivacaine in an ultrasound-guided adductor canal block for the management of persistent pain after arthroscopic reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament: a randomized, double-blind study [PDF]

BMC Anesthesiology
Background Pain is a protective response to noxious stimuli to prevent further damage. The surgical incision results in several events that lead to pain that outlasts its benefits. Persistent postsurgical pain (PPSP) is defined as “pain that persists for

Comparison ultrasound-guided adductor canal block and surgeon-performed block for pain management after total knee arthroplasty: a prospective randomized controlled study [PDF]

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders
Objective Adductor canal block (ACB) is widely performed for postoperative analgesia for total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The aim of this study is to compare surgeon-assisted and anesthesiologist-assisted (ultrasound-guided) adductor blocks in terms of ...

The analgesic effect of continuous adductor canal block combined with popliteal plexus block for total knee arthroplasty: a randomized controlled trial [PDF]

Scientific Reports
This study aimed to confirm the hypothesis that continuous ACB (CACB) combined with a popliteal plexus block (PPB) can improve posterior knee pain, reduce nalbuphine consumption, and shorten the length of hospital stay.

Comparison of adductor canal block for analgesia in arthroscopic surgery with ropivacaine alone and ropivacaine and clonidine [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Anestesiologia, 2019
Background and objectives: Inadequate pain relief after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction affects mobility leading to development of adhesions, weakened ligament insertion and muscle atrophy.

A Combination of Ultrasound-guided Popliteal Sciatic Nerve Block and Adductor Canal Block as a Sole Anaesthetic Technique for below Knee Amputation in High-risk Patients: A Case Series [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2023
Below-knee amputation in high-risk patients is associated with significant mortality and morbidity. Spinal anaesthesia is linked to an increased incidence of hypotension and bradycardia, and it is relatively contraindicated in patients with coagulation

Comparative efficacy of sciatic obturator and femoral nerve block technique with that of adductor canal block in patients undergoing elective knee surgeries: a prospective, randomized, double-blind study

Bali Journal of Anesthesiology, 2023
Background: Knee surgery necessitates adequate analgesia to reduce postoperative complications and promote early recovery. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of the SOFT block (a single-puncture technique to block the sciatic, obturator, and ...
