Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
It is expected that the group selected for the ankle block associated with dexmedetomidine will have more effective (higher quality) and more prolonged analgesia compared to those who underwent blockade with ropivacaine alone, which should be determined by lower values on the VAS scale ( pain analogue scale) reported by patients in the 24 hours following the procedure and the duration of anesthesia reported by the patient on the day after the procedure

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
no secondary outcomes are expected
