Category: Ankle; Other Introduction/Purpose: The purpose of this study was to perform a systematic review of the current literature assessing the management of pain with various block techniques in the perioperative period during elective foot and ankle surgery. Methods: A review of the literature was performed according to the PRISMA guidelines. Medline, Embase, and Cochrane databases were searched on October 1, 2019. Studies were identified by using synonyms for ‘foot’, ‘ankle’, ‘pain management’, ‘opioid’ and ‘nerve block’. Inclusion criteria were studies that 1) reported and compared the outcomes following various types of peripheral nerve blocks in in foot and ankle surgery, 2) were published in the English language, and 3) were published within the last 10 years. Results: Twenty-four articles evaluating 4,640 patients were included. Sixty-seven percent were randomized controlled trials, 17% were prospective comparison studies, and 17% were retrospective comparison studies. Nerve block techniques included: femoral, adductor canal, sciatic, popliteal, saphenous, and ankle. Ropivacaine and bupivacaine were most commonly utilized. Postoperative opioid consumption and postoperative pain levels were reduced with use of PNB when compared with systemic/local anesthesia, in patients receiving combined popliteal/femoral block, and in patients receiving continuous infusion popliteal block [Table 1, Table 2]. Studies demonstrated higher satisfaction with PNB, continuous infusion, and dual injections [Table 3]. One study reported 7% neurologic related complication risk and demonstrated a higher complication rate when with popliteal versus ankle block. All other studies were equivocal or failed to mention complications. Conclusion: Optimal pain management for elective foot and ankle surgery remains controversial and an ideal protocol from a risk-benefit perspective regarding use of PNB has yet to be established. Our study demonstrates improvements in postoperative pain levels, opioid consumption, and length of stay in patients receiving a PNB when compared with systemic anesthesia. Combined PNB and dual catheter administration may improve outcomes. Unfortunately, little data has been published on risks and tradeoffs in order to help guide patients and surgeons with a well informed shared decision making model. Future studies are needed to better clarify any respective tradeoffs to these options. [Table: see text]

Abstract Background: Unrelieved postoperative pain afflicts millions each year in low and middle income countries (LMIC). Despite substantial advances in the study of pain, this area remains neglected. Current systematic review was designed to ascertain the types of clinical trials conducted in LMIC on postoperative pain management modalities over the last decade. Methods: A comprehensive search was performed in June 2019 on PubMed, Cochrane Library, CINAHL Plus, and Web of Science databases to identify relevant trials on the management of postoperative pain in LMIC. Out of 1450 RCTs, 108 studies were reviewed for quality evidence using structured form of critical appraisal skill program. Total of 51 clinical trials were included after applying inclusion/exclusion criteria. Results:Results are charted according to the type of surgery. Eleven trials on laparoscopic cholecystectomy used multimodal analgesia including some form of regional analgesia. Different analgesic modalities were studied in 4 trials on thoracotomy, but none used multimodal approach. In 11 trials on laparotomy, multimodal analgesia was employed along with the studied modalities. In 2 trials on hysterectomy, preemptive pregabalin or gabapentin were used for reduction in rescue analgesia. In 13 trials on breast surgical procedures and 10 on orthopaedic surgery, multimodal analgesia was used with some form of regional analgesia. Conclusion: We found that over the past 10 years, clinical trials for postoperative pain modalities have evolved in LMIC according to the current postoperative pain management guidelines i.e. multi-modal approach with some form of regional analgesia. The current review shows that clinical trials were conducted using multimodal analgesia including but not limited to some form of regional analgesia for postoperative pain in LMIC however this research snapshot (of only three countries) may not exactly reflect the clinical practices in all 47 countries.

Background: Optimising postoperative pain management after total hip arthroplasty (THA) has been associated with improved patient outcomes. However, conclusions regarding the role of liposomal bupivacaine (LB) during THA remain mixed. The purpose of this study was to determine whether substituting a standard intraoperative wound infiltrate with LB as part of a multimodal pain management protocol would decrease subsequent opioid consumption and overall length of hospital stay in patients undergoing primary THA. Methods: Data was retrospectively collected on 170 consecutive patients who underwent primary THA at a single institution from January 2014 to October 2014. Outcomes from the first 85 patients who received intraoperative LB were compared to the prior 85 patients who received a standard intraoperative “cocktail” without LB. The remainder of the multimodal pain management protocol was identical between groups. Results: Total continuous and categorical postoperative hospital opioid consumption rates in the LB subgroup were significantly lower than the non-LB subgroup ( p < 0.001). The use of LB was associated with a relative reduction in opioid consumption on the day of surgery ( p = 0.001), postoperative day 1 ( p < 0.001), postoperative day 2 ( p < 0.001) and postoperative day 3 ( p < 0.001). Patients who received LB had decreased length of stay ( p = 0.001) and were discharged on lower doses of opioids. Conclusion: Substituting to LB from a standard wound infiltrate during primary THA, in addition to our standard multimodal pain management protocol, resulted in significantly lower postoperative opioid consumption and decreased length of stay.

Background While a number of pharmacological interventions exist for the treatment of opioid use disorder, evidence evaluating the effect of pain on substance use behavior, attrition rate, and physical or mental health among these therapies has not been well established. We aim to evaluate these effects using evidence gathered from a systematic review of studies evaluating chronic non-cancer pain (CNCP) in patients with opioid use disorder. Methods We searched the Medline, EMBASE, PubMed, PsycINFO, Web of Science, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, ProQuest Dissertations and theses Database, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, World Health Organization International Clinical Trials Registry Platform Search Portal, and National Institutes for Health Clinical Trials Registry databases to identify articles evaluating the impact of pain on addiction treatment outcomes for patients maintained on opioid agonist therapy. Results Upon screening 3,540 articles, 14 studies with a combined sample of 3,128 patients fulfilled the review inclusion criteria. Results from the meta-analysis suggest that pain has no effect on illicit opioid consumption [pooled odds ratio (pOR): 0.70, 95%CI 0.41–1.17; I 2 = 0.0] but a protective effect for reducing illicit non-opioid substance use (pOR: 0.57, 95%CI 0.41–0.79; I 2 = 0.0). Studies evaluating illicit opioid consumption using other measures demonstrate pain to increase the risk for opioid abuse. Pain is significantly associated with the presence of psychiatric disorders (pOR: 2.18; 95%CI 1.6, 2.9; I 2 = 0.0%). Conclusion CNCP may increase risk for continued opioid abuse and poor psychiatric functioning. Qualitative synthesis of the findings suggests that major methodological differences in the design and measurement of pain and treatment response outcomes are likely impacting the effect estimates.
