Brief summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate analgesic effects Bupivacaine, Bupivacaine plus Dexmedetomidine and Bupivacaine plus Fentanyl in relieving pain after knee arthroscopic surgery.
Detailed description
Forty-five patients ASA I - II aged 21-45 years for elective knee arthroscopy were divided into 3 groups: Group B, BD and BF. Group B received Intra-articular injection of 20 ml bupivacaine 0.25%+ 1 ml saline. Group BD received Intra-articular injection of 20 ml bupivacaine 0.25%+ 1 ml dexmedetomidine (100 ug). Group BF received Intra-articular injection of 20 ml bupivacaine 0.25%+ 1 fentanyl (50 ug). The time of first request of analgesia and analgesic effect by VAS during the first 24 hr. postoperatively are recorded.
Interventions
Group BD received Intra-articular injection of 20 ml bupivacaine 0.25%+ 1 ml dexmedetomidine (100 ug).
Group BF received Intra-articular injection of 20 ml bupivacaine 0.25%+ 1 fentanyl (50 ug)
Group B received Intra-articular injection of 20 ml bupivacaine 0.25%+ 1 ml saline.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Duration of postoperative analgesia | For 24 hours postoperative | start from intra-articular injection of the drug to the time of first request of analgesia |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| pain intensity on mobilization of operated knee (dynamic) | measured immediately preoperative 0 minute ( admission receiving area) | measured by VAS on 0-10 cm scale(0- no pain and 10-the worst pain) |
| total dose of rescue analgesia ( pethidine) | within 24 hours postoperative | total consumption of rescue analgesia (pethidine) postoperative |
| The number of participants with bradycardia, itching and hypotension | Within 24 hours postoperative | The number of participants with bradycardia less than 50 beat per minute, itching and hypotension if mean arterial blood pressure less than 20% of basal ) |
| patient satisfaction | within 24 hours postoperative | Patient satisfaction by five point Likert-Like verbal rating scale by asking the patient how they evaluate the experience with the analgesic management after the the surgery? (5-very satisfied, 4-satisfied, 3-neutral, 2-dissatisfied, 1-very dissatisfied) |
| pain intensity at rest (static) | measured immediately preoperative 0 minute ( admission receiving area) | measured by VAS on 0-10 cm scale (0- no pain and 10-the worst pain) |
