Abstract
The effective relief of postsurgical pain in patients undergoing knee arthroscopy is important to allow the initiation of activities of daily living. The objective of this study is to demonstrate the analgesic efficacy of dexmedetomidine as an adjuvant added to ropivacaine by the intra-articular route. METHOD Seventy patients underwent knee arthroscopy which were randomly assigned into two groups (n=35). The RD group received ropivacaine 1.5mg/kg plus dexmedetomidine 1μg/kg intra-articularly. Group R received ropivacaine 1.5mg/kg intra-articularly. The analgesic effect was evaluated by measuring the intensity of pain (VAS score) and the duration of analgesia. RESULTS A longer duration of the analgesic effect was observed in the RD group (655min) compared to the R group (318min) being statistically significant (p=0.03). CONCLUSION Dexmedetomidine as an adjuvant to intra-articular ropivacaine improves the quality and duration of postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing knee arthroscopy.

Arthroscopy 2022; 38:2897-2908.e18. [PMID: 35346774 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2022.03.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2021] [Revised: 03/02/2022] [Accepted: 03/02/2022] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the comparative efficacy and safety of single-dose intra-articular injection of commonly used analgesics after knee arthroscopy. METHODS A systematic literature review was done to search for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published from database inception to October 1, 2020, that compared analgesics (i.e., morphine, bupivacaine, ropivacaine, and magnesium alone or in combination) with placebo or each other after knee arthroscopy. The primary outcomes were postoperative pain intensity at 2 hours and 24 hours. Secondary outcomes included the time to first analgesic request, number of patients requiring supplementary analgesics and side effects. We estimated summary standardized mean differences (SMDs) or odds ratios with 95% credible intervals (95% CrIs) using Bayesian network meta-analysis with random effects. RESULTS In total, 78 randomized controlled trials comprising 4,425 participants were included. Compared with placebo, magnesium plus bupivacaine was most likely to be effective in relieving pain at both 2-hour (SMD = -3.81, 95% CrI -5.28 to -2.35) and 24-hour after surgery (SMD = -2.81, 95% CrI: -4.29 to -1.30). Following was morphine plus bupivacaine (2-hour: SMD = -2.19, 95% CrI -3.05 to -1.31; 24-hour: SMD = -1.44, 95% CrI -2.14 to -0.73) and bupivacaine alone (2-hour: SMD = -1.66, 95% CrI -2.33 to -0.98; 24-hour: SMD = -0.67, 95% CrI -1.22 to -0.07); ropivacaine alone and magnesium alone were not effective on pain relief. The interval time to first analgesic request was significantly extended compared with placebo except for ropivacaine alone and magnesium alone. The number of patients requiring supplementary analgesics was reduced in all groups except ropivacaine alone. No statistically significant difference was found between any studied analgesics or placebo with regard to side effects. CONCLUSIONS Of 6 common postoperative intra-articular analgesics, magnesium plus bupivacaine provides the most effective pain relief without increasing short-term side effects after knee arthroscopy. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level II, meta-analysis of Level I and II studies.

Oxycodone-paracetamol tablet exhibits increased analgesic efficacy for acute postoperative pain, higher satisfaction and comparable safety profiles compared with celecoxib in patients underwent arthroscopic knee surgery. Inflammopharmacology 2021; 29:1091-1099. [PMID: 34181148 DOI: 10.1007/s10787-021-00828-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2021] [Accepted: 05/29/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
This randomized, controlled study compared the efficacy and safety between oxycodone-paracetamol tablet and celecoxib for postoperative analgesia in patients who underwent arthroscopic knee surgery (AKS). Totally, 232 patients scheduled to undergo AKS were enrolled and were randomly assigned to either the oxycodone-paracetamol (OPT group) or the celecoxib group (CEL group). Pain at rest/motion (based on pain visual analog scale (VAS) score), rescue analgesia consumption, satisfaction level and adverse events were assessed after AKS. Pain VAS score at rest was decreased at 6 h, 12 h post-AKS in the OPT group compared with the CEL group. Similarly, pain VAS score at motion was reduced at 6 h, 12 h, 24 h post-AKS in the OPT group compared to the CEL group. Furthermore, both rescue analgesia rate (14.7% vs. 33.6%) and accumulated pethidine consumption (3.7 ± 8.9 mg vs. 14.0 ± 21.2 mg) were lower in OPT group compared with the CEL group. Patients satisfaction score was either at 24 h, 48 h in OPT group compared with the CEL group. Further subgroup analyses indicated that the effect of oxycodone-paracetamol versus (vs. celecoxib) on post-AKS management was more apparent in the elderly patients and male patients. In addition, the adverse events were well tolerable (including nausea, constipation, vomiting, drowsiness and dizziness) and were of no different between the two groups. In conclusion, oxycodone-paracetamol tablet presents increased analgesic efficacy for acute postoperative pain, with higher patient satisfaction and comparable safety profiles compared with celecoxib in patients underwent AKS.

Abstract
PURPOSE The opioid epidemic has prompted an emphasis on investigating opioid-sparing alternatives for pain management following knee arthroscopy. This review evaluated the effects of perioperative nonopioid adjunct analgesia on postoperative opioid consumption and pain control in patients undergoing knee arthroscopy. METHODS A systematic review and meta-analysis was performed using the following databases: PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, MEDLINE, and SCOPUS. Prospective comparative studies assessing the efficacy of various perioperative nonopioid analgesic strategies in patients undergoing knee arthroscopy were included. Twenty-five studies (n = 2408) were included. RESULTS Pre-emptive nonopioid pain medications demonstrated a reduction in cumulative postoperative oral morphine equivalent (OME) consumption by 11.8 mg (95% CI - 18.3, - 5.4, p ≤ 0.0001) and VAS pain scores by 1.5 (95% CI - 2.3, - 0.7, p < 0.001) at 24 h compared to placebo. Postoperative nonopioid pain medications significantly reduced cumulative postoperative OME consumption by 9.7 mg (95% CI - 14.4, - 5.1, p < 0.001) and VAS pain scores by 1.0 (95% CI - 1.354, - 0.633, p < 0.001) at 24 h compared to placebo. Saphenous nerve blocks significantly reduced cumulative postoperative OME consumption by 6.5 mg (95% CI - 10.3, - 2.6, p = 0.01) and VAS pain scores by 0.8 (- 1.4, - 0.3, p = 0.03) at 24 h compared to placebo. Both preoperative patient education and postoperative cryotherapy reduced postoperative opioid consumption. CONCLUSION Perioperative nonopioid pharmacotherapy, saphenous nerve blocks, and cryotherapy for patients undergoing knee arthroscopy significantly reduce opioid consumption and pain scores when compared to placebo at 24 h postoperatively. These interventions should be considered in efforts to reduce opioid consumption in patients undergoing knee arthroscopy. More research is needed to determine which interventions can reduce pain outside of the immediate postoperative period and the potential synergistic effects of combining interventions.

Abstract
Background: Opioid consumption and patient satisfaction are influenced by a surgeon’s pain-management protocol as well as the use of adjunctive pain mediators. Two commonly utilized adjunctive pain modifiers for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction are femoral nerve blockade and intra-articular injection; however, debate remains regarding the more efficacious methodology. Hypothesis: We hypothesized that intra-articular injection with ropivacaine and morphine would be found to be as efficacious as a femoral nerve block for postoperative pain management in the first 24 hours after bone–patellar tendon–bone (BTB) ACL reconstruction. Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: Charts were retrospectively reviewed for BTB ACL reconstructions performed by a single pediatric orthopaedic surgeon from 2013 to 2019. Overall, 116 patients were identified: 58 received intra-articular injection, and 58 received single-shot femoral nerve block. All patients were admitted for 24 hours. Pain scores were assessed every 4 hours. Morphine milligram equivalents (MMEs) consumed were tabulated for each patient. Results: Opioid use was 24.3 MMEs in patients treated with intra-articular injection versus 28.5 MMEs in those with peripheral block (P = .108). Consumption of MMEs was greater in the intra-articular group in the 0- to 4-hour period (7.1 vs 4.6 MMEs; P = .008). There was significantly less MME consumption in patients receiving intra-articular injection versus peripheral block at 16 to 20 hours (3.2 vs 5.6 MMEs; P = .01) and 20 to 24 hours (3.8 vs 6.5 MMEs; P < .001). Mean pain scores were not significantly different over the 24-hour period (peripheral block, 2.7; intra-articular injection, 3.0; P = .19). Conclusion: Within the limitations of this study, we could identify no significant difference in MME consumption between the single-shot femoral nerve block group and intra-articular injection group in the first 24 hours postoperatively. While peripheral block is associated with lower opioid consumption in the first 4 hours after surgery, patients receiving intra-articular block require fewer opioids 16 to 24 hours postoperatively. Given these findings, we propose that intra-articular injection is a viable alternative for analgesia in adolescent patients undergoing BTB ACL reconstruction.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Most of the patients who received arthroscopic knee surgery will suffer moderate to severe pain, which can delay the rehabilitation process and increase the risk of postoperative complications. Therefore, seeking a safe and effective postoperative analgesia is necessary for promoting the application of arthroscopic surgery. This protocol aims to detail a planned systematic review and meta-analysis on the comparative efficacy and safety of single-dose intra-articular injection of analgesics for pain relief after knee arthroscopy. METHOD AND ANALYSIS PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and Cochrane Library will be searched from inception to 1 June 2020 to retrieve randomised controlled trials (RCTs) that compared the commonly used single-dose intra-articular analgesics (ie, morphine; bupivacaine (including levobupivacaine); ropivacaine and magnesium alone or in combination) with placebo or between each other for postoperative pain relief among patients who had received knee arthroscopy. The primary outcome is pain intensity at 2-hour and 24-hour postoperatively; the secondary outcomes include side effects (eg, knee effusion, nausea, vomiting and flushing), the number of patients requiring supplementary analgesia and the time to first analgesic request. The methodological quality of the included RCTs will be assessed based on the Cochrane risk of bias table. The Bayesian network meta-analysis will be conducted using WinBUGS V.1.4.3. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION Since no private or confidential patient data will be contained in the reporting, approval from an ethics committee is not required. Our study raises no ethical issue, and the results will be published in a peer-reviewed journal. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER CRD42019130876.

Abstract
To examine the analgesic effect and safety of single-dose intra-articular (IA) magnesium (Mg) after arthroscopic surgery. Pubmed, Embase and Cochrane library were searched through in January 2016. Eight RCTs and eight experimental studies were included. The IA Mg exhibited a significantly lower pain score when compared with placebo (MD, -0.41, 95% CI, -0.78 to -0.05, p = 0.03). There was no significant difference between Mg and bupivacaine in terms of pain relief and the time to first analgesic request. Furthermore, statistically significant differences both in pain score (MD, -0.62, 95% CI, -0.81 to -0.42, p < 0.00001) and time to first analgesic request (MD, 6.25, 95% CI, 5.22 to 7.29, p < 0.00001) were observed between Mg plus bupivacaine and bupivacaine alone. There was no statistically significant difference among the various groups with respect to adverse reactions. Most of the included in vitro studies reported the chondrocyte protective effect of Mg supplementation. There were also two in vivo studies showing the cartilage protective effect of IA Mg. The single-dose IA Mg following arthroscopic surgery was effective in pain relief without increasing adverse reactions, and it could also enhance the analgesic effect of bupivacaine. In addition, Mg seemed to possess the cartilage or chondrocyte protective effect based on experimental studies.

A Single-Dose Intra-Articular Morphine plus Bupivacaine versus Morphine Alone following Knee Arthroscopy: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. PLoS One 2015; 10:e0140512. [PMID: 26474401 PMCID: PMC4608597 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0140512] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2015] [Accepted: 09/25/2015] [Indexed: 01/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Objectives The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of a single-dose intra-articular morphine plus bupivacaine versus morphine alone in patients undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery. Methods Randomized controlled trials comparing a combination of morphine and bupivacaine with morphine alone injected intra-articularly in the management of pain after knee arthrocopic surgery were retrieved (up to August 10, 2014) from MEDLINE, the Cochrane Library and Embase databases. The weighted mean difference (WMD), relative risk (RR) and their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using RevMan statistical software. Results Thirteen randomized controlled trials were included. Statistically significant differences were observed with regard to the VAS values during the immediate period (0-2h) (WMD -1.16; 95% CI -2.01 to -0.31; p = 0.007) and the time to first request for rescue analgesia (WMD = 2.05; 95% CI 0.19 to 3.92; p = 0.03). However, there was no significant difference in the VAS pain score during the early period (2-6h) (WMD -0.36; 95% CI -1.13 to 0.41; p = 0.35), the late period (6-48h) (WMD 0.11; 95% CI -0.40 to 0.63; p = 0.67), and the number of patients requiring supplementary analgesia (RR = 0.78; 95% CI 0.57 to 1.05; p = 0.10). In addition, systematic review showed that intra-articular morphine plus bupivacaine would not increase the incidence of adverse effects compared with morphine alone. Conclusion The present study suggested that the administration of single-dose intra-articular morphine plus bupivacaine provided better pain relief during the immediate period (0-2h), and lengthened the time interval before the first request for analgesic rescue without increasing the short-term side effects when compared with morphine alone. Level of Evidence Level I, meta-analysis of Level I studies.
