The Role of Genicular Nerve Blocks in Enhancing Postoperative Pain Management After Total Knee Arthroplasty: A Retrospective Study [PDF]
Conclusion: The results of this exploratory retrospective study suggest that the additional benefits of GNBs, if any, are limited for the early postoperative period when combined with continuous FTB and iPACK block in patients undergoing TKA.

Advances in regional anesthesia techniques for knee surgery have led to drastic improvements in postoperative pain control and have reduced reliance on perioperative opioid analgesics. The infiltration between the popliteal artery and capsule of the knee (IPACK) block has been a useful tool for providing posterior knee analgesia as an adjuvant to ...

The effect of adding dexamethasone to adductor block and IPACK block on acute postoperative, rebound, and chronic pain following knee arthroplasty—1-year follow-up [PDF]
The analgesic efficacy of nerve blocks depends on the duration of local anesthetics, whose effects can be extended with adjuvant drugs. This prospective interventional study aimed to assess the impact of adding dexamethasone to levobupivacaine on the ...

Comparative analysis of adductor canal block combined with iPACK block versus femoral combined with sciatic nerve blocks: a propensity score matched study [PDF]
Background Nerve blocks are effective in reducing postoperative opioid use and enhancing rehabilitation following total knee arthroplasty. However, few studies compare the analgesic efficacy and functional recovery of adductor canal block (ACB) combined ...

A Comparative Study Between Ultrasound-Guided Genicular Nerve Block Combined With Interspace Between the Popliteal Artery and the Capsule of the Posterior Knee Block versus Adductor Canal Block in Total Knee Replacement. [PDF]
Background: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a surgical intervention that relieves patients experiencing severe pain and joint dysfunction. Objective: The aim is to evaluate ultrasound‐guided genicular nerve block (GNB) paired with infiltration between the popliteal artery and the capsule of the posterior knee IPACK block in comparison with adductor ...

Anesthesia and Analgesia Methods in Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty and Primary Total Knee Arthroplasty-A Survey of Nordic Anesthesiologists. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background The objective of this survey was to assess the current practices of analgesia and anesthesia for patients undergoing primary hip (THA) and knee (TKA) total joint arthroplasty in the Nordic countries. Additionally, we aimed to explore the differences in anesthesia and analgesia techniques, prevalence of day case surgery procedures ...
