As a surgeon the challenge is to reduce pain to an acceptable level in the post-operative period. The aim of the study was to assess the efficacy of bolus local anaesthesia, infusion in to the surgical site and nerve blocks with femoral nerve catheter and its functional outcome. A prospective audit of 114 patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty were carried out.The patients were divided in to three groups : Group 1 (n = 27) received a bolus injection of 20 ml 0.25% levobupivacaine + 10 ml 0.25%bupivacaine + adrenaline + 30 ml saline. Group 2 (n = 39) received a bolus injection as on group 1 with 240 ml 0.25% bupivacaine infusion and 5 ml/hour using a Pain Buster pump. Group 3 (n = 48) received 30 ml 0.125% levobupivacaine to femoral (3- in-1) block with 30 ml 0.25% levobupivacaine to sciatic nerve and introduction of a femoral nerve catheter. All patients were prescribed paracetamol 1 g QDS, Oxycontin 20 mg BD and Ibuprofen post operatively. Pain was assessed with a Visual Analog Scale (VAS). The incidence of PONV was measured by PONY intensity score. The mean post-op VAS score for Group 3 was 4. The demand of oxynorm and NSAID were minimal in Group 3. The mean in patient stay for Group 3 was 3.1 days. The PONV intensity score was > 50 for 9 (36%) in Group 1, 15 (40%) in Group 2 and 9 (20%) in Group 3. There was loss of 20-30 degrees of flexion movements in Group 3 in the first 4 to 6 days post-op. Our study demonstrated that Regime 3 with the use of nerve blocks and femoral nerve catheter has given the maximum pain relief and good functional outcome following total knee replacement.
