Comparison of Ultrasound Guided Saphenous Nerve Block using Two Different Anatomical Approaches in patients undergoing knee surgery

Comparison of the analgesic efficacy and onset time of the ultrasound-guided saphenous nerve block using two different anatomical approach that one of them is subsartorial and the other is level of medial condylar, addition to sciatic nerve block in all patients undergoing knee surgery.

Brief summary

The present study was designed to compare and evaluate to applicable the ultrasound guided saphenous nerve blocks which are supsartorial approach and medial condyl approach, and measure to onset time, block duration time, patient satisfaction. Sixty patients between 18 to 60 years of age undergoing sub-knee surgery were randomized to two groups. Intervention(s): Saphenous nerve block performs using the ultrasound-guided technique with 5 mL 0.25 % levobupivacaine+ %1 lidocaine with either subsartorial tecnique or medial condyl tecnique. Main outcome measures: Blocks duration time, block onset time and patient satisfaction over the course of 24 hours.

Interventions

We apply Ultrasound guided saphenous nerve block at level of medial condyl with 5 mL % 0.25 levobupivacaine + % 1 lidocaine for intraoperative anaesthesia management undergoing sub-knee surgery
