Aims: This study aims to put forth the results of continuous intraarticular pain pump administration after total knee arthroplasty.
Material and Methods: This retrospective study was conducted on bilateral knee arthroplasty surgery patients. The patients who used only a one-sided continuous intraarticular pain pump were investigated. The Visual analogue scale(VAS), at the 8th hour, 24th hour, 2nd week and 1st month and the range of motion (ROM) at the 24th hour, 2nd week and 1st month were evaluated at both knees.
Results: Twenty-six patients (25 female, 1 male) met the study criteria. The mean age was 71.66∓5.07 years (63-81years). The continuous intraarticular pain pump used knees were associated with a significant decrease in the VAS at the 8th and 24th hours. Though there were no differences in the range of motion between pain pump used and non-used knees at the 48th, 2nd week and 1st month. No pain pump-related complications were detected.
Conclusion: Using a continuous intraarticular pain pump is effective in treating pain after total knee prosthesis. This benefit on pain relief does not make a significant difference in the range of motion of the knee.
