Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study was to examine the benefit of perioperative epidural anaesthesia in total knee arthroplasty. Is there a better early rehabilitation outcame and on the other side does it have a negative influence on the complication rate and the perioperative blood loss? Method: The study was randomised and prospectively conducted. 39 patient got an epidural catheter for the operation with was reactivated with a single shot injection on the day after the operation. Therefore a painless passive mobilisation of the operated kneewas possible untill 120 degrees of flection. The 17 patients of the control group underwent the operation in general anaesthesia with conventionel parenteral postoperative analgesia. Each patient was examined with the help of a standardized examination protocol on day before the operation and after one, two and sixteen weeks. Results: There was a significantly better flection with peridural catheter postoperativ after one and two weeks. Also significantly better was the walking range after one and sixteen weeks after the operation. There was no significant difference in the score of Lysholm and Gillquist. There was an increased rate of complications in the study group, first of all cases of delayed wound healing. Conclusion: The usage of the epidural catheter is an option to consider in perioperative knee arthroplasty. However the increased rate of complications is a concern.
