Analysis on efficacy of local incision continuous local ropivacine infiltration anesthetic analgesia after total knee arthroplasty / 重庆医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate and evaluate the effectiveness and safety of continuous local incision infiltration anesthetic analgesia after total knee arthroplasty(TKA).Methods Forty-eight patients with initial unilateral TKA in the Affiliated Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Southwest Medical University from August 2015 to May 2016 were allocated to three groups according to systematic random sampling methods:16 cases in the control group received continuous local incision infiltration anesthesia and femoral nerve block analgesia,16 cases received continuous femoral nerve block analgesia after TKA(CFNB) and other 16 cases received local ropivacaine continuous local incision infiltration anesthesia analgesia(CWI).The preoperative general situation,visual analogue scale (VAS) score of operative site in movement and rest on postoperative 1-3 d,postoperative early function recovery and postoperative complication were compared among 3 groups.Results All cases were followed up.There was no statistically significant difference in the general situation postoperative complications among 3 groups(P＞0.05).the VAS score under movement status on postoperative 1-3 d and rest status in the CWI group and CFNB group were similar,which were lower than those in the control group,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05);the postoperative early function recovery in the CWI group was superior to that in the control group and CFNB group.Conclusion local incision infiltration anesthetic analgesia after TKA can relief postoperative pain,facilitate patient's early function exercise and rehabilitation,and improves patient's satisfaction.
