Single-injection and continuous femoral nerve blocks are associated with different risks of falling.
To the Editor: I read with interest the superb retrospective database study of Memtsoudis et al. titled, “Inpatients falls after total knee arthroplasty: The role of anesthesia type and peripheral nerve blocks.”1 Of more than 190,000 patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty (TKA), there was a fall incidence of 1.6%. Twelve percent of all patients had a “peripheral nerve block” (PNB), yet,...
متن کاملAnaesthesia for total knee arthroplasty: efficacy of single-injection or continuous lumbar plexus associated with sciatic nerve blocks--a randomized controlled study.
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) often results in marked postoperative pain. We compared in a randomized controlled study tramadol consumption, postoperative pain and patient satisfaction after primary TKA in patients who received a single injection lumbar plexus and sciatic nerve blocks or a continuous lumbar plexus and sciatic nerve blocks. Forty-four patients scheduled for unilateral total knee...
متن کاملContinuous peripheral nerve blocks: is local anesthetic dose the only factor, or do concentration and volume influence infusion effects as well?
BACKGROUND The main determinant of continuous peripheral nerve block effects--local anesthetic concentration and volume or simply total drug dose--remains unknown. METHODS We compared two different concentrations and basal rates of ropivacaine--but at equivalent total doses--for continuous posterior lumbar plexus blocks after hip arthroplasty. Preoperatively, a psoas compartment perineural ca...
متن کاملThe Comparing of Ultrasound-guided Techniques: Sciatic Block with Continuous Lumbar Plexus Block or Continuous Femoral Nerve Block for Anesthesia and Analgesia of Total knee Replacement
Background and Aims: This double blind prospective randomized clinical trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of continuous ultrasound-guided lumbar plexus block compared to continuous ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block, in the intra-operative and postoperative periods after total knee replacement. Methods: Forty ASA I-III patients were randomized to receive: continuous femoral block (n= 20...
متن کاملA Comparison of Epidural Anesthesia and Lumbar Plexus-Sciatic Nerve Blocks for Knee Surgery
OBJECTIVES The efficacy of combined lumbar plexus-sciatic nerve blocks was compared to epidural anesthesia in patients undergoing total knee surgery. PATIENTS AND METHODS The study included 80 American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Physical Status I-III patients (age range 18 to 65) undergoing knee surgery. The patients were randomly divided into one of two groups. Epidural anesthesia wa...
