•Reduced pain scores•Reduced morphine consumption•Reduced opioid side effects•Increased sedation in some•Optimal dose & duration not definedyet
Gabapentin, NSAIDs & Ketamine are opioid sparing andreduce opioid side-effects (Level 1)
GlucocorticoidsDexamethasone reduces postoperative pain, PONV &fatigue (level 1)
• Less pain on walking up to 32hrs• Lower rescue oxycodone analgesia• Less fatigue• No complications
• 3449 patients (gynae)• No increase rate of SSI if receiveddexamethasone

Spinal AnaesthesiaDose?• ED50 for LB for LL surgery is 5.7mg• 15mg LB gives ~ 3-4 hrs surgicalanaesthesia• takes ~ 6 hrs to completely regress• 10 mg LB gives ~ 2 hrs surgicalanaesthesia• takes ~ 3-4 hrs to regressLee YY, Anesth Analg 2009;109:1331–4

Is Femoral Nerve Block Useful inTKR• Analgesia for the wound but not the knee• All intra-articular structures innervated bybranches of the tibial nerve (ie not blocked by FNB)• Posterior knee pain is main problem• No evidence that cFNB better than ssFNB*
PNB = motor block = No Cigar!• Unhappy patients,nurses, physios &surgeons• Can very low LAconcentration sparequadriceps function?
Best Motor Score in 36hr
low dose blocks?• “despite the use of ultra-lowconcentrations of LB, mild motor block -manifest as impaired SLR or inability todorsiflex - still occurred in the majority ofpatients, and prevented early mobilization.Furthermore,patients felt that movementwas restricted by the weight of the blockedleg”

• pooled data from 3 RCTs• 7 falls in 6 patients with cFNB or cLPB(n=85)• 0 falls in placebo group (n=86)• “our analysis suggests that there is a causalrelationship between cPNB and risk offalling..”Anesth Analg 2010;111:1552-4
• 10<strong>18</strong> patients• 709 had ss FNB• 12 falls (1.7%)• 3 re-operation (0.4%)• 5 femoral neuritis (0.7%)
So...• Spinal opioids make you sick & need acatheter• Nerve blocks paralyse quads, may notprovide great analgesia, make walkingdifficult and increase risk of falls• Neither technique compatible with earlymobilisation• Alternative?

How do we reduce bleeding ?
Tranexamic acid
• Cochrane 2009 issue 4• >200 trials - cardiac, ortho, vascularmainly• Tranexamic acid reduces bleeding by ~30%• No increased VTE risk
