Anatomical Variation of Femoral Nerve Location in Relation to Femoral Artery - An Ultrasonographic Evaluation
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Ultrasound scanning of inguinal area for femoral nerve and artery for Femoral Fractures. Completed, enrolled 200 participants.
Detailed Summary
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the relative position of femoral nerve in relation to the femoral artery in patients scheduled for femoral fractures using ultrasound scanning. The classical description of femoral nerve is that it lies immediately near to artery, but it is not always true. The nerve lies at a varying distance from the artery. The main question it aims to answer are: • Is the age sex and Body Mass Index affect the relationship between femoral artery and nerve?
