ANALGESIC EFFECT OF ROPIVACAINE AFTER ARTHROSCOPIC RECONSTRUCTION OF THE LIGAMENT IN ATHLETES

ABSTRACT After arthroscopic ligament reconstruction, athletes still need to go through a postoperative rehabilitation training period and suffer the possible pain that can go from moderate to severe. Commonly used analgesic medications, ropivacaine and fentanyl have the effect of relieving athletes’ pain. To study the analgesic effect of ropivacaine on arthroscopic reconstruction of the knee ligament, the steps of reconstruction and pharmacology of ropivacaine were first introduced. Next, the analgesic effects of ropivacaine and fentanyl in 86 athletes were compared on muscle strength recovery, patient satisfaction, and pain score. The results showed that the satisfaction of patients with ropivacaine was 95.35%, and the incidence of postoperative adverse reactions was only 9.30%. These results indicate that ropivacaine has a better analgesic effect in arthroscopic reconstruction of the knee ligament in athletes, which is suitable for postoperative rehabilitation.

摘要 关节镜下韧带重建术后，运动员仍需经历一段术后康复训练期，并可能承受中度至重度的疼痛。常用镇痛药物罗哌卡因（ropivacaine）与芬太尼（fentanyl）均可缓解运动员的疼痛。为探究罗哌卡因在运动员膝关节韧带关节镜重建术中的镇痛效果，本文首先介绍了重建手术步骤与罗哌卡因的药理学特性。随后，针对86名运动员，对比了罗哌卡因与芬太尼在肌力恢复、患者满意度及疼痛评分方面的镇痛效果。结果显示，使用罗哌卡因的患者满意度达95.35%，术后不良反应发生率仅为9.30%。上述结果表明，罗哌卡因用于运动员膝关节韧带关节镜重建术时镇痛效果更优，适配术后康复需求。
