The Influence of Tourniquet and Adductor Canal Block Use on Pain and Opioid Consumption after Total Knee Arthroplasty.
Orthopedic Clinics of North America 2023 October
Reducing pain and opioid consumption after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is an important perioperative consideration. Though commonly used, the combined influence of tourniquets and adductor canal blocks (ACBs) on pain and opioid consumption is unknown. This study evaluated inpatient opioid consumption and pain between patients with TKA based on tourniquet and/or ACB use. Pain and opioid consumption were highest when a tourniquet, but no ACB was used, and lowest when an ACB, but no tourniquet was used - though absolute differences in pain scores were not clinically significant. Tourniquet and ACB use should be considered as part of TKA opioid-sparing protocols.
