The study aimed to determine the association of nerve blocks with short- and long-term pain outcomes and factors influencing self-reported neurological symptoms.METHODSWe performed a multisite, prospective observational study of adolescent patients undergoing ACLR. Perioperative data included demographics, block details, anesthetic, and surgical techniques. Self-reported surveys documented pain scores, medication use, and neurological symptoms at various time points after the surgery (postoperative day [POD] 1, POD 3, week 6, and month 6). Associations between different groups of peripheral nerve blocks (PNBs) and the absence of a block were analyzed for their effects on acute postoperative pain outcomes. In addition, factors influencing self-reported neurological outcomes were determined using both univariate and multivariate regression.RESULTSData from 519 subjects (aged 15 years, 55.7% female) showed that 23.9% of patients with anterior plus posterior nerve blocks (A+P PNB) reported severe postanesthesia care unit (PACU) pain scores, compared to 40% with no PNB and 38.3% with anterior PNB (A-PNB). Patients receiving A-PNB or A+P PNB had significantly lower intraoperative morphine equivalents (MEs) (0.49 mg/kg and 0.46 mg/kg, respectively) vs no block patients (0.61 mg/kg). Total PACU MEs were lower for any patient who received a PNB. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that patients who received A+P PNB or a hamstring autograft had lower POD 1 severe pain scores (odds ratio [OR] = 0.35; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.15-0.84 and OR = 0.35; 95% CI, 0.15-0.83, respectively). Patients with PNBs with local anesthesia concentration (LAC) greater than 0.25% reported higher POD1 pain scores (OR = 2.14; 95% CI, 1.1-4.16) compared to those with lower LAC. Patients with PNB catheters had reduced POD 1 pain. Multivariable logistic regression analysis for numbness at week 6 revealed a greater odds of numbness for A-PNB with LAC >0.25% (OR = 5.13; 95% CI, 1.27-20.8). At month 6, patients receiving PNB with perineural steroid adjuvant were more likely to report numbness (dexamethasone OR = 5.93; 95% CI, 1.61-21.9, methylprednisolone OR = 11.3; 95% CI, 2.16-58.6).CONCLUSIONSPatients who received A+P PNB had lower postoperative pain scores than those who received no block. Additional studies are necessary to discern how PNB type, graft harvest site, LAC, and adjuvants influence pain control, persistent numbness, and weakness.","PeriodicalId":7799,"journal":{"name":"Anesthesia & Analgesia","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143062053","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, patients' experience with tapering can influence the success of this treatment. Understanding patients' experiences with opioid tapering will allow for patient-centered approaches to be adopted to tailor interventions to achieve safe and successful taper outcomes. This paper aims to synthesize qualitative data capturing patients' experiences with opioid tapering for noncancer pain. Qualitative studies in English that explored patients' experiences with opioid tapering in noncancer pain were included. MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, and PsycINFO were searched from inception to March 2023. Two authors independently selected the studies, extracted data, and assessed the quality of included studies using the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme. A meta-synthesis allowed for overarching themes to be identified to form a new interpretation of the data in the context of past literature. From 5714 articles identified, 10 studies were included that met the inclusion criteria after title/abstract screening and full-text review. These studies involved 218 patients with experience tapering opioids. Three key themes guiding the new meta-synthesis were identified: (1) patient-provider interactions, (2) individualized care, and (3) tactics to manage the opioid tapering process. This review demonstrated the role that patient-provider interactions, tailored care, and effective tapering strategies play in facilitating a favorable patient experience during the opioid tapering process. Future research should incorporate the themes identified in this review to optimize the patient's taper experience.","PeriodicalId":7799,"journal":{"name":"Anesthesia & Analgesia","volume":"53 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143056975","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
