Pharmacokinetic Profile of Plasma Levobupivacaine Following Fascia Iliaca Compartment Block for Proximal Femoral Fracture in Older Patient
Background: Fascia Iliaca Compartment Block (FICB) is commonly used in older patients to provide effective analgesia following hip fracture. Objectives: However, only limited Pharmacokinetic (PK) data about levobupivacaine are available to help clinical practice and establish safe volumes and amounts of local anesthetics. Methods: Ten patients aged between 53 and 87 years, who underwent hemi...

متن کاملFascia iliaca compartment block for patients with proximal femoral fracture -Prospective evaluation of the efficacy and safety-
INTRODUCTION Proximal femoral fractures are most common fractures in the elderly. To relieve the pain due to the injury, conventional management modality is administration of systemic opioids and non-steroid anti inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). In this study, we examined the effectiveness of fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB) in pain management in acute stage for patients with proximal femoral...
متن کاملA Continuous Infusion Fascia Iliaca Compartment Block in Hip Fracture Patients: A Pilot Study
BACKGROUND Hip fractures account for 350,000 fractures annually and the projected incidence is expected to exceed 6.3 million by 2050. As the number of hip fractures continues to increase as a result of the aging American population, the importance of limiting and preventing complications is magnified. METHODS This study demonstrated the clinical effects of a continuous fascia iliaca compartm...
