Local Anesthetics for Neuraxial and Regional Techniques

DeckerMed Anesthesiology, 2018
Local anesthetics are used with neuraxial and regional techniques to provide pain relief, most commonly postoperatively. Each agent is a sodium-channel blocker, although each agent differs in onset of action, potency, duration of action, and safety profile. Chemical structure and lipophilicity are the main determinants of these characteristics.

Comparison of two regional anesthetic techniques for knee arthroscopy

Arthroscopy: The Journal of Arthroscopic & Related Surgery, 1995
This study compares the efficacy of "3-in-1 block" versus femoral nerve block for knee arthroscopy. One-hundred patients had a 3-in-1 block; 180 patients had a femoral nerve block. The 3-in-1 block provided anesthesia in 75 patients; 20 patients needed supplementary local anesthesia. Five patients required a general anesthesia to complete the operation.
