Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Current standard of care i.e. conservative management  The patients with knee arthralgia will be interviewed and examined and if they fulfill the inclusion/exclusion protocol, will further undergo a standardized history taking, physical examination, blood investigations, x-rays and recording of outcome measures. All will be offered an initial standard of care i.e. conservative management for a period of two weeks, with the advice to return for follow up. Paracetamol will be prescribed for first line use, with Etoricoxib as second line of treatment according to the protocol. They will be instructed to keep a count on number of tablets ingested every day and will be included in the Standard of Care Group.  
Intervention  Ultrasonography-guided Adductor Canal Block injection  The patients in the Intervention Group will receive an ultrasonography-guided single Adductor Canal Block injection. The thigh will be prepared and draped according to standard sterile techniques. Adductor Canal Block will be performed in the mid to proximal thigh on medial aspect, using a linear transducer being placed transverse to the longitudinal axis of leg and curved probe in case of patients with high BMI.The saphenous nerve would be identified, underneath the Sartorius muscle as is descends lateral to the femoral artery in the Adductor Canal (Hunter Canal or Sub Sartorial Canal).Then a mixed solution containing 9 ml of 2% Lidocaine and 1ml of 40mg/ml Triamcinolone acetonide with a 22 gauze spinal anaesthesia needle will be injected in the Adductor Canal.

Brief Summary  

AIM

To ascertain the effectiveness of ultrasound-guided Adductor Canal Block in patients with knee osteoarthritis having antero-medial knee pain, and it’s comparison with Standard of Care.

 

OBJECTIVES

Primary Objective:

To compare the outcomes of the two groups, the one receiving Adductor Canal Block and the other receiving Standard of Care, for the effectiveness of two therapeutic modalities on antero-medial knee pain in knee osteoarthritis.

Secondary Objective:

To evaluate the functional improvement in knee osteoarthritis patients treated with ultrasound- guided Adductor Canal Block.

This study hypothesizes that the adductor canal block achieves better pain relief than Standard of Care i.e. conservative management in knee osteoarthritis patients with antero-medial knee pain.
