A multimodal control of pain can be reached by using non-steroidal anti-inflammatory, COX-2 anti-inflammatory inhibitors, peripheral nerve blocks and intra-articular anesthetics injections and decrease use of opioids given of potential collateral effects. Peripheral blockings are associated to the smallest rate of collateral effects and complications when compared to the spinal anesthesia and analgesia controlled by the patients. Studies comparing the effects of the femoral and sciatic-femoral blocking guided by ultrasonography for the analgesia control after TKA were not found.
