About this study

Official title: Infiltration of Local Anesthetic in the Interspace Between the Popliteal Artery and Capsule of the Posterior Knee "IPACK Block" Versus Adductor Canal Block "ACB" for Pain Relief After Open Wedge High Tibial Osteotomy

A comparison between IPACK block and adductor canal block in post operative pain management

Read the detailed description

Two groups of patients between 40 and 60 yrs who are undergoing open wedge high tibeal osteotomy Group 1 will receive IPACK block with 15 ml Bupivacaine, immediately before spinal anaesthesia .

Group 2 will receive adductor canal block ,also with 15 ml Bupivacaine. before spinal anaesthesia. register the time of first pain sensation and firs IV analgesic dose required in each group

Being tested
Infiltration of local anaesthetic between popliteal artery and posterior knee capsule
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Infiltration of local anaesthetic between popliteal artery and posterior knee capsuleProcedure or surgery

    Also called Adductor canal block

    Adductor canal block (ACB) is a popular peripheral nerve block that has been shown to decrease pain significantly and thereby opioid consumption with minimal effect on quadriceps function [8]. Though ACB provides analgesia to the peripatellar and intra-articular aspect of knee joint, it does not relieve posterior knee pain which is moderate to severe in intensity [9, 10]. The recent technique of an ultrasound (US)-guided local anesthetic infiltration of the interspace between popliteal artery and the capsule of posterior knee (IPACK) has shown to provide significant posterior knee analgesia without affecting the common peroneal nerve (CPN) [11]. We postulated that IPACK will provide better pain relief and improve knee function in the immediate postoperative period compared to ACB

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. the time of first pain sensation requiring analgesia

    If intervention which is adductor canal block or lPACK block is effective in postoperative pain control that can decrease the lV analgesic agents

    Measured: 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Infiltration of local anaesthetic between popliteal artery and posterior knee capsule in people with Pain, Postoperative, run by Assiut University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Salwa Hussein (01159460234, salwa94hussien@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the time of first pain sensation requiring analgesia (time frame: 24 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Mar 2022.
