Pain therapy using stimulating catheters after total knee arthroplasty
Schmerz, 09/21/09
Fritze P et al. – et al. – The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of a continuous femoral nerve block with an additional continuous sciatic nerve block for improved functional recovery and pain relief...The reported pain scores and opioid consumption did not differ significantly between the groups. However, functional recovery up to the third postoperative day was significantly worse in the femoral catheter group. Using stimulating catheters for pain therapy the three methods are largely comparable and other parameters should be used for individual selection.
