Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Optimizing the amount of Ropivacain and Gabapentin, used for local infiltration (LIA) during TKA procedures by measuring the outcomes of pain (by using the 100 mm Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), adverse effects, length of hospital stay, cumulative pain medication consumption and wound leakage.;Secondary Objective: not applicable;Primary end point(s): - Pain scores , measured with VAS at day 1 at multiple moments: 1, 4 and 8 hours after operation in rest, and while and direct after mobilization starting at 4-6 hours after operation. At day 2 until the day of discharge at two moments. - Adverse effects (headache, nausea, vomiting, dizziness and sedation) - Cumulative consumption of opioid medication and pain medication. - Length of Hospital Stay by amount of nights and number of hours between operation and discharge. - Woundleakage in five point scale (none - severe);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: - VAS: 1,4,8 hours after operation in rest and direct after mobilization at 4-6 hours after operation. At day 2 until discharge at 2 standardized moments: morning and afternoon. - Adverse effects at the same moments - Cumulative consumption of opioid medication and pain medication during admission in hospital. - Woundleakage at 2 standardisd moments in morning and afternoon.
