Surgeon-Directed Arthroscopic Infiltration Between the Popliteal Artery and Capsule of the Knee (IPACK) Block: Technical Description. [PDF]
Arthrosc Tech, 2023 Abstract 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

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 AnestesiaBackground: 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.

Ultrasound Guided Infiltration of Popliteal Artery and Capsule of Knee [IPACK] versus IPACK with Adductor Canal Block [ACB] for Postoperative Knee Surgery Analgesia: A Comparative Study [PDF]
International Journal of Medical Arts, 2023 Background: Perioperative pain control largely affects postoperative recovery and surgical outcome. Post-operative pain after knee surgery may delay early ambulation and impair quality of recovery.
