Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of continous wound infiltration with long-lasting local anesthetics in comparison to standard pain management after elective distal metatarsal osteotomy for postoperative pain control.;Secondary Objective: Not applicable;Primary end point(s): The primary outcome parameters are average pain and peak pain level on the numeric rating scale (NRS) during the first 48 hours after the operation. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: NRS will be evaluated every 4 hours during the first 48 hours after the procedure. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): The secondary outcomes include postoperative rescue opioid consumption, clinical outcome (AOFAS forefoot score, ROM of MTP joint of the greater toe), incidence of postoperative complications and patients’ satisfaction with surgery (VRS).;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 6 weeks after the procedure. | — |
