Journal of Perioperative Practice, 2009
Femoral nerve blocks and indeed all peripheral nerve blocks have become a popular, safe and effective method of providing postoperative analgesia. The advantages of a femoral nerve block for lower limb surgery include good postoperative analgesia, a reduction in the need for opioids (thus reducing the associated complications of opioids such as nausea,

Techniques in Regional Anesthesia and Pain Management, 2003
Abstract Peripheral nerve blocks can provide high-quality anesthesia and analgesia after unilateral lower-extremity surgery. Lower-extremity nerve blocks, though underused, have significant advantages to central neuraxial techniques, especially in the ambulatory setting.

SCIATIC AND FEMORAL NERVE BLOCK
Journal of the American Medical Association, 1952One of the most useful yet most neglected anesthetic procedures is the combination of sciatic and femoral nerve block. The physician who treats a large number of diabetics or patients with minor or major accidental injuries of the legs will find this block most useful. The technique of a satisfactory sciatic-femoral nerve block is simple to master, and

The femoral nerve is one of principle branches of the lumbar plexus and innervates the anterior of the thigh, anteromerial leg, and joints of hip and knee. Femoral nerve block (FNB), one of essential blocks for lower extremity, is widely used for the purpose of anesthesia and postoperative analgesia of knee, thigh, and hip surgery. The procedure of FNB

Ultrasound-Guided Femoral Nerve Blocks
Pediatric Emergency Care, 2015Pediatric acute femur fractures are a relatively common major orthopedic injury seen in emergency departments. Providing adequate and safe analgesia is essential while patients await definitive management of these fractures. Opioid medications are typically used to treat fracture-associated pain but have well-known adverse effects including respiratory

Femoral nerve block in extracapsular femoral neck fractures
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1995We randomised 50 patients with extracapsular fractures of the femoral neck to receive either a bupivacaine femoral nerve block or systemic analgesia alone. A femoral nerve block was found to be an easy and effective procedure which significantly reduced perioperative analgesic requirements and postoperative morbidity.

Femoral and lateral femoral cutaneous nerve block
Techniques in Regional Anesthesia and Pain Management, 1999Blockade of the lateral femoral cutaneous and femoral nerves is most commonly performed to provide postoperative analgesia for procedures on the knee. It can also provide the sole anesthetic for quadriceps muscle biopsy in the patient at risk for malignant hyperthermia.

Femoral nerve block in knee joint surgery
The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 1984Assessment is made of the effectiveness of femoral nerve block, administered either before or after surgery, in supplementing postoperative analgesia for knee joint (anterior cruciate) reconstruction surgery. Femoral nerve block, performed before surgery, with Bupivacaine 0.5%, reduced intramuscular opiate ad ministration by 80% in the recovery room ...

Femoral nerve block for diaphyseal and distal femoral fractures in the emergency department
Acute Pain, 2007Diaphyseal and distal femoral fractures are painful injuries that are frequently seen in patients requiring a trauma work-up in the hospital emergency department prior to definitive management. The purpose of this study was to determine whether a femoral nerve block administered in the emergency department could provide better pain relief for patients ...
