Analgesia
Conditions
Brief summary
Total knee replacement (total knee arthroplasty) is performed to resurface a knee damaged by arthritis and relieve pain in patients with severely damaged knee joints. Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is associated with severe postoperative pain, and the management of postoperative pain continues to evolve with the advancement of surgical techniques and pharmacological treatments. Femoral, lateral femoral cutaneous nerve and obturator nerve block is provided with suprainguinal fascia iliaca plan block, which is used for postoperative analgesia, especially in hip surgeries. In this way, the investigators think it can be used as a part of multimodal analgesia in total knee arthroplasty surgery.
Interventions
After the operation is completed, the fascia iliaca will be separated from the iliacus muscle. With ultrasound guidance, the local anesthetic injection will be made between the fascia and the muscle.
A total volume of 80 ml local anesthetic will be applied to the medial and lateral capsule, the medial and lateral meniscus margins, the deep part of the medial ligament, the medial and lateral synovial space, and the patellar ligament and quadriceps tendon.
