Table 4 Comparison between the three study groups as regard postoperative opioid consumption

From: A comparative study between continuous epidural analgesia, ultrasound guided continuous femoral nerve block (CFNB), and ultrasound guided continuous adductor canal block (ACB) for post-operative pain management after total knee replacement (TKR)

 

Group A (n=20)

Group B (n=20)

Group C (n=20)

p-value

Postoperative opioid (morphine) consumption (mg)

1.88± 1.5

3.58 ± 1.67

4.88± 2.21

<0.001

  1. Data are presented as mean and standard deviation
  2. Regarding postoperative opioid consumption, there was a statistical significance between the three groups with higher opioid consumption in both the femoral and adductor groups
  3. P value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant
