Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
This study was approved by the institutional review board of the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University. The protocol design is in accordance with Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) statement . This study is designed as a randomized controlled trial to compare the analgesic efficacy of continuous femoral nerve block (group CFNB) with local wound infiltration (group LWI).
Participants in group CFNB will receive a single injection for femoral nerve block intra-operatively combined with continuous femoral nerve block post-operatively guided by ultrasound and nerve stimulator.
Participants in group LWI will receive a peri-articular injection of suspension (48 ml of 0.8% ropivacaine with 2 ml of 40mg methylprednisolone) combined with intravenous non-opioid patient controlled analgesia.All participants will receive unified post-operative rehabilitation programme and the prophylaxis of infection and thrombo-embolism.
The primary outcome of this study is the incidence of chronic moderate-to-severe post-surgical pain.The secondary outcomes of this study are acute post-operative pain and rescue medication;knee function measured by WOMAC knee scores ;life ability measured by EQ-5D questionnaire;adverse events associated with the post-operative analgesia.
This study will be conducted under the supervision of an independent auditor. Every week, the auditor checked the data of the participants the day after the survey was conducted. Assessment of pain intensity and prognostic outcomes must be confirmed by the auditor in sampled population. When there is disagreement between surgeon and anesthesiologists in evaluating the prognosis of patients, the auditor must solve this disagreement by discussion with both evaluators. Data were double-entered by two statisticians with limitation of access and locked during statistical analysis.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
CFNB group
Particiants in this group will receive a single injection for femoral nerve block intra-operatively combined continuous femoral nerve block post-operatively. This technique will be guided by ultrasound and nerve stimulator.The regimen is a loading dose of 0.8% ropivacaine 30 ml intra-operatively and 0.15% ropivacaine 300ml in the form of continuous femoral nerve block post-operatively.
CFNB group
CFNB :A single injection of ropivacaine 30ml for femoral nerve block pre-operatively +0.15% ropivacaine 300ml for continuous femoral nerve block post-operatively guided by ultrasound and nerve stimulator.
LWI group
Particiants in this group will receive a peri-articular injection of suspension (48 ml of 0.8% ropivacaine with 2 ml of 40mg methylprednisolone) combined with intravenous patient controlled analgesia post-operatively (tramadol 800 mg and flurbiprofenaxetil 100 mg with saline added up to a volume of 80 ml )
LWI group
LWI: 48 ml of 0.8% ropivacaine with 2 ml of 40mg methylprednisolone for intra-articular and peri-articular wound infiltration intra-operatively in combination with intravenous patient controlled analgesia post-operatively.
