The Effects of Ultrasound Guidance and Neurostimulation on the Minimum Effective Anesthetic Volume of Mepivacaine 1.5% Required to Block the Sciatic Nerve Using the Subgluteal Approach
Anesthesia & Analgesia, 10/26/09
Danelli G et al. – The authors tested the hypothesis that ultrasound (US) guidance may reduce the minimum effective anesthetic volume (MEAV50) of 1.5% mepivacaine required to block the sciatic nerve with a subgluteal approach compared with neurostimulation (NS). US provided a 37% reduction in the MEAV50 of 1.5% mepivacaine required to block the sciatic nerve compared with NS.
