Adductor canal blocks (ACBs) are associated with improved analgesia, preserved quadriceps strength, and decreased length of hospitalization after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, controversy remains regarding the ideal location a continuous block within adductor canal, it unclear whether similar clinical benefits obtained irrespective location. In this randomized, double-blind, noninferiority study, we hypothesized that proximal ACB provides postoperative analgesia is no worse than...
Hematoma formation after peripheral nerve block placement is a rare event. We report case of morbidly obese patient who was anticoagulated with apixaban and developed massive thigh hematoma an ultrasound-guided adductor canal block. Despite continuous visualization the needle, unrecognized vascular injury occurred leading to 14-cm in anterolateral thigh. Morbid obesity warrants additional risk consideration when placing blocks patient. In addition, early recognition expert consultation are...
Patients undergoing open inguinal hernia repair may experience moderate to severe postoperative pain. We assessed opioid consumption in subjects who received a continuous transversus abdominis plane block addition standard multimodal analgesia.Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled.Tertiary academic medical center.Adult patients at Virginia Mason Medical Center. A total of 90 were enrolled.Subjects presenting for surgery randomized receive either or subcutaneous sham block. The primary...
A 53-year-old woman with extreme obesity (body mass index = 82 kg/m) presented for an open reduction and internal fixation of the proximal humerus. This report describes novel management her continuous brachial plexus catheter in setting comorbidities. Phrenic nerve paralysis from blocks can cause clinically significant dyspnea obese patients. Brachial catheters be used effectively these patients some modification to routine management. We detail our use a short-acting chloroprocaine test...
