Abstract Background Gabapentin (GAB) has recently been introduced for postoperative pain treatment in orthopedic surgery. As persistent postoperative pain is still a major problem in total knee arthroplasty (TKA), studies on the effect and side effects of Gabapentin in addition to the commonly used morphine (MOR), Oxynorm (OXY) and Norspan (NOR) are highly warranted. In the present study, four relevant treatment algorithms, gabapentin and morphine (GAB/MOR), gabapentin and Oxynorm (GAB/OXY), Oxynorm (OXY) and Gabapentin, Oxynorm and Norspan (GAB/OXY/NOR) were examined. Patients and methods A total of 241 patients were followed systematically during one month following TKA in four consecutive series: 60 patients were treated with GAB/MOR, 62 patients with GAB/OXY, 59 patients with OXY, and 60 patients with GAB/OXY/MOR. On the day before surgery and on postoperative day 1, 14, and 30, pain during rest, pain during walking and side effects (constipation, dizziness, and nausea) were reported (VAS). Results After 30 days, pain greatly decreased in all groups, with a superior effect of GAB/OXY/NOR for pain during rest and only slightly more side effects at day 1. Conclusions In management of postoperative pain following TKA, data indicated that GAB/OXY/NOR was superior, compared to GAB/MOR, GAB/OXY, and OXY.

Abstract Objective To investigate the effects of one and two doses of intravenous dexamethasone in patients after total knee arthroplasty. Design Randomised, blinded, placebo controlled trial with follow-up at 90 days. Setting Five Danish hospitals, September 2018 to March 2020. Participants 485 adult participants undergoing total knee arthroplasty. Intervention A computer generated randomised sequence stratified for site was used to allocate participants to one of three groups: DX1 (dexamethasone (24 mg)+placebo); DX2 (dexamethasone (24 mg)+dexamethasone (24 mg)); or placebo (placebo+placebo). The intervention was given preoperatively and after 24 hours. Participants, investigators, and outcome assessors were blinded. All participants received paracetamol, ibuprofen, and local infiltration analgesia. Main outcome measures The primary outcome was total intravenous morphine consumption 0 to 48 hours postoperatively. Multiplicity adjusted threshold for statistical significance was P<0.017 and minimal important difference was 10 mg morphine. Secondary outcomes included postoperative pain. Results 485 participants were randomised: 161 to DX1, 162 to DX2, and 162 to placebo. Data from 472 participants (97.3%) were included in the primary outcome analysis. The median (interquartile range) morphine consumptions at 0-48 hours were: DX1 37.9 mg (20.7 to 56.7); DX2 35.0 mg (20.6 to 52.0); and placebo 43.0 mg (28.7 to 64.0). Hodges-Lehmann median differences between groups were: −2.7 mg (98.3% confidence interval −9.3 to 3.7), P=0.30 between DX1 and DX2; 7.8 mg (0.7 to 14.7), P=0.008 between DX1 and placebo; and 10.7 mg (4.0 to 17.3), P<0.001 between DX2 and placebo. Postoperative pain was reduced at 24 hours with one dose, and at 48 hours with two doses, of dexamethasone. Conclusion Two doses of dexamethasone reduced morphine consumption during 48 hours after total knee arthroplasty and reduced postoperative pain. Trial registration Clinicaltrials.gov NCT03506789 .

This non-randomized control group intervention study was conducted to determine the effect of preoperative video based pain training on postoperative pain and analgesic use in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty. During the study, the patients in the control ( n = 40) received routine care and the patients in the intervention group ( n = 40) received video based pain training. İt was determined that the mean postoperative pain scores of the intervention group were significantly lower and their pain management was better compared to the control group ( p < .05). The intervention group was found to use significantly less paracetamol on operation day compared to the control group ( p < .05). The intervention group was determined to benefit from non-pharmacological methods more than the control group did ( p < .05). Providing video based pain training to patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty is recommended since it reduces postoperative pain levels and increases the use of non-pharmacological pain control methods.

Abstract Purpose Effectiveness of sufentanil sublingual tablet system (SSTS) compared to oral oxycodone in the management of postoperative pain after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) within an enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol. Methods This pragmatic, parallel, open label, randomized controlled, trial enrolled 72 adult patients scheduled for TKA under spinal anesthesia following ERAS pathway. In addition to multimodal analgesia, patients received SSTS 15 mcg (SSTS group) or oral oxycodone extended release 10 mg twice daily and oral oxycodone immediate-release 5 mg up to four times daily on demand (Oxy group) to control pain during 48 h postoperatively. The primary endpoint was pain measured using a numeric rating scale at 24 h postoperatively. Time to first mobilization, side effects and patient satisfaction were also recorded. Results Median pain score at 24 h at rest was 3 [2–4] for Oxy group vs 2 [1.75–3] for SSTS group (p = 0.272) whereas median pain score on movement was 4 [3–6] vs 3 [2–5] respectively (p = 0.059). No difference in time to first mobilization was found between the two groups. The method of pain control was judged good/excellent for 83.9% of patients in the SSTS group compared with 52.9% in the Oxy group (p = 0.007). The incidence of nausea was 33% in SSTS group and 9% in Oxy group (p = 0.181). Conclusions In complement to ERAS multimodal analgesia, sublingual sufentanil 15 mcg tablet system did not show clinically significant pain improvement compared to oral oxycodone after total knee arthroplasty.

Persistent Postoperative Pain

BackgroundThere is growing evidence that cytokines and adipokines are associated with osteoarthritis (OA) severity, progression, and severity of associated pain. However, the cytokine response to total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and its association with persistent postoperative pain is not well understood. This study aims to describe the perioperative systemic (plasma) and local (synovial fluid) cytokine profiles of patients who do and do not develop persistent pain after TKA.MethodsPatients undergoing primary unilateral TKA for end-stage OA were prospectively enrolled. Demographic and clinical data were gathered preoperatively and postoperatively. Synovial fluid was collected pre arthrotomy and plasma was collected at multiple time points before and after surgery. Persistent postoperative pain (PPP) was defined as Numerical Rating Score≥4 at 6 months. Cytokine levels were measured using the V-Plex Human Cytokine 30-Plex Panel (Mesoscale—Rockville, Maryland, USA). Cytokine levels were compared between PPP and minimal pain groups. Given that the study outcomes are exploratory, no adjustment was performed for multiple testing.ResultsIncidence of persistent pain at 6 months post TKA was 15/162 (9.3%). Postoperative plasma levels of four cytokines were significantly different in patients who developed persistent postoperative pain: interleukin (IL)-10, IL-1β, vascular endothelial growth factor, and IL12/IL23p40. Significantly lower IL-10 levels in the prearthrotomy synovial fluid were associated with development of postoperative persistent pain.ConclusionsThis prospective cohort study described a distinct acute perioperative inflammatory response profile in patients who developed persistent post-TKA pain, characterized by significant differences in four cytokines over the first 2 postoperative days. These results support the growing evidence that the patient-specific biologic response to surgery may influence longer-term clinical outcomes after TKA.Trial registration numberClinicaltrials.gov NCT02626533.
