관절경을 이용한 전 십자 인대 성형술 후 관절강내로 투여한 Morphine과 Ketorolac의 진통효과

Analgesic Effect of Intraarticular Morphine or Ketorolac Injection after Arthroscopic ACL Reconstruction

In order to obtain a good result in Arthroscopic ACL Reconstruction by immediate postoperative physical therapy, sufficient analgesia was needed. This study analyzes the analgesic effect of the intra-articular injection with ketorolac, Morphine together with bupivacaine in 80 male patients who had Arthroscopic ACL Reconstruction. On completion of the surgery under spinal anesthesia, the knee was injected with 30ml of 0.25% bupivacaine. Each of the study group received ketorolac and/or morphine, either through parenteral or intra-articular. Total amount of the drug used by Patient Controlled Analgesia(PCA) and Visual Analgesia Scale(VAS) for pain were measured and analyzed. The group which received intra-articular ketorolac or Morphine had a better analgesic effect than other group which received none. The group which received both did not do better in analgesic effect. Intra-articular infusion with either ketorolac or Morphine improved postoperative analgesia in Arthroscopic ACL Reconstruction surgery. However, combined injection did not offer more advantage.
