Analgesic efficacy of adding the IPACK block to multimodal analgesia protocol for primary total knee arthroplasty: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

Most patients will experience moderate-to-severe postoperative knee pain, significantly affecting rehabilitation. However, controversy remains regarding the efficacy of adding the interspace between the popliteal artery and capsule of the knee (IPACK) into multimodal analgesia protocol.
