In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Wound infiltration catheter, NaCl 0.9%, and 1 other intervention for Hallux Valgus. Completed, enrolled 50 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of continuous wound infiltration with ropivacaine in comparison to standard pain management after elective distal metatarsal osteotomy for postoperative pain control.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Wound catheter with multiple and laterally aligned holes is inserted through the intact skin via an 16G iv catheter 2 cm proximal-laterally from the proximal end of the dorsomedial skin incision and placed subcutaneously through the wound and medially around the first metatarsal so that the tip projects into the interdigital space 1/2.
The catheter is connected to the perfusor line filled with saline 0.9% to allow continuous wound infiltration at a rate of 2 ml/h for 24 hours.
