Advances in regional anesthesia techniques for knee surgery have led to drastic improvements in postoperative pain control and have reduced reliance on perioperative opioid analgesics. The infiltration between the popliteal artery and capsule of the knee (IPACK) block has been a useful tool for providing posterior knee analgesia as an adjuvant to traditional femoral or adductor canal blocks in knee surgery. We present a simple and reproducible technique for the arthroscopic administration of this block.
膝关节手术区域麻醉技术的进展已使术后疼痛控制得到显著改善,并减少了对围手术期阿片类镇痛药的依赖。腘动脉与膝关节囊之间浸润阻滞(IPACK阻滞)作为膝关节手术中传统股神经阻滞或收肌管阻滞的辅助手段,一直是提供膝关节后方镇痛的有效方法。我们介绍一种用于关节镜下实施该阻滞的简单且可重复的技术。
