Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of ultrasound-guided adductor canal block (ACB) for analgesia after tibial fracture.Methods American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients of both sexes,aged 18-64 yr,with body mass index of 18-24 kg/m2,scheduled for elective internal fixation for unilateral tibial fracture under general anesthesia,were enrolled in this study.The tracheal tube was removed after operation,and then the patients were admitted to the postanesthesia care unit.The visual analog scale score was recorded.Eighty patients with visual analog scale score>3 were divided into 2 groups (n =40 each) using a random number table method:control group (group C) and ACB group.Patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) was performed at the end of operation.Patients underwent ACB on the affected side,and 0.375% ropivacaine 20 ml was injected in group ACB.Sufentanil 0.1-0.2 μg/kg was intravenously injected in group C.Ramsay sedation scores were recorded immediately after entering the postanesthesia care unit (T0) and at 15 and 30 min and 1,2,4,8 12 and 24 h after block (T1-8).When visual analog scale scores >3 points and the pain could not be relieved through pressing the PCA pump,tramadol 1-2 mg/kg was intramuscularly injected.Patients were followed up for 24 h after surgery,and the postoperative consumption of sufentanil,pressing time of PCA and patients' satisfaction scores were recorded.The occurrence of postoperative nausea and vomiting,respiratory depression and hypoxemia and length of postoperative hospital stay were also recorded.Results Compared with group C,the postoperative consumption of sufentanil,pressing time of PCA,requirement for and consumption of tramadol,incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting and oversedation,and Ramsay sedation score at T1-5 were significantly decreased,and the patients' satisfaction score were increased in group ACB (P<0.05).Conclusion Ultrasound-guided ACB exerts better analgesic efficacy after tibial fracture with fewer adverse reactions.
