Ultrasound-guided Continuous Femoral Nerve Block: The Influence of Catheter Orifice Configuration (Six-hole Versus End-hole) on Post-operative Analgesia After Total Knee Arthroplasty. A Randomized Trial.

University Hospital, Geneva·interventional·Posted Dec 18, 2017·Updated Dec 18, 2017

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating lidocaine and ropivacaine injection through catheters for Pain. Completed, enrolled 72 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

Multiorifice catheters have been shown to provide superior analgesia and significantly reduce local anesthetic consumption compared with end-hole catheters in epidural studies. This prospective, blinded, randomized study tested the hypothesis that, in continuous femoral nerve block (CFNB) under ultrasound guidance, multiorifice catheter would reduce local anesthetic consumption at 24h compared with end-hole catheter.

Interventions

lidocaine and ropivacaine injection through catheterscombination

injection of local anesthetic through an endhole or a sixhole femoral nerve catheter in the context of total knee replacement. Analgesic properties at 24 and 48h of both groups registered.
