Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: - age 99 years - BMI > 40 - patient participation in another investigation - failed written informed consent - further surgery on other body parts - chronic pain with opioid use - Polyneuropathy/sensoric deficit ipsilateral arm - mental disorder/demencia - allergy for Ropivacaine or Prilocaine

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary outcome parameter is the dislocation rate of the catheters. The position of the catheter will be evaluated by injection of 2ml of saline through the catheter. The fluid spread will be evaluated sonografically regarding the nerve immediately after surgery as well as on postoperative day one and two. The spread pattern is categorized in subfascial perineural, extrafascial perineural dislocated, intramuscular dislocated.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
secondary outcome parameters of this study are the postoperative opioid consumption, pain levels (numeric rating scale) in morning, afternoon and evening and patient satisfaction
