Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Pain during 45 degrees active flexion of the knee
0-100 mm at a visual analogue scale (VAS), at 1 hour postoperative
Secondary Outcome Measures
Pain during 45 degrees active flexion of the knee
0-100 mm at a visual analogue scale (VAS), registered at the intervals 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 hours postoperative, calculated as "the area under the curve" (AUC) for the interval 1-6 hours postoperative.
Pain during rest
0-100 mm at a visual analogue scale (VAS), registered at the intervals 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 hours postoperative, calculated as "the area under the curve" (AUC) for the interval 1-6 hours postoperative.
A change in pain score in the ropivacaine group, after activating the block
0-100 mm at a visual analogue scale (VAS), at 30 and 60 minutes postoperative. A change in pain score in the ropivacaine group compared to the placebo group, after activating the block.
Total morphine consumption
Total morphine consumption at the interval 30 minutes - 6 hours postoperative.
Postoperative nausea
Nausea scores(0-3)registered at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 hours postoperative, calculated as mean value for the interval 1-6 hours postoperative.
Postoperative vomiting
Number of vomiting episodes at the interval 1-6 hours postoperative.
Zofran consumption
Total zofran consumption at the intervals 1-6 hours postoperative.
Sedation
Sedation score (0-3) registered at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 hours postoperative, calculated as the mean value for the interval 1-6 hours postoperative.

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of Adductor-Canal-Blockade on pain and morphine consumption after total knee arthroplasty. Our hypothesis is that the Adductor -Canal-Blockade is superior to placebo in reducing pain and morphine consumption after total knee arthroplasty.
