Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: In this study we will investigate the difference between prilocaine 1% and prilocaine 1.5% in relation to the time of onset of sensory and motor blockade and the quality and the duration of the block. In addition we will investigate if there is an effect of prilocaine in the used doses on the methemoglobinemia.;Secondary Objective: In addition we will investigate if there is an effect of prilocaine in the used doses on the methemoglobinemia.;Primary end point(s): 1. time to onset of sensory and motor block 2. quality of the block, represented by the need for additional analgesia or sedation perioperative 3. duration of the block: time to return of sensory and motor function ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1. After performing the plexus block 2. During the surgical procedure 3. 24hrs postoperatively

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): methemoglobinemia;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 30 minutes after the plexus block 1 hr after the plexus block
