Femoral Nerve Block

Acute Pain Medicine, 2019
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

Pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block provides improved short-term analgesia compared with the femoral nerve block in hip fracture surgery: a single-center double-blinded randomized comparative trial

Regional anesthesia and pain medicine, 2021
Background The femoral nerve block (FNB) may be used for analgesia in hip fracture surgery. The pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block is a novel regional technique and may provide better pain reduction while preserving motor function, but these blocks ...

Femoral Nerve Blocks

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,

Pre‐operative femoral nerve block for hip fracture—A systematic review with meta‐analysis

Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, 2020
Pre‐operative pain management of hip fracture patients is complex. Femoral nerve block (FNB) is used for hip fractures to reduce pain and demand for systematic analgesia. The objective of the study was to systematically investigate the efficacy of single‐

Femoral nerve blocks

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.

Ultrasound-Guided Femoral Nerve Blocks

Pediatric Emergency Care, 2015
Pediatric 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

Effect of Adductor Canal Block Versus Femoral Nerve Block on Quadriceps Strength, Function, and Postoperative Pain After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: A Systematic Review of Level 1 Studies

American Journal of Sports Medicine, 2019
Background: Femoral nerve block (FNB) is a popular technique for reducing postoperative pain in patients with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), but it is also linked to a number of adverse effects, such as quadriceps weakness, antalgic ...

Cadaveric study investigating the femoral nerve-sparing volume for pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block

Regional anesthesia and pain medicine, 2023
Background This cadaveric study investigated the maximum effective volume of dye in 90% of cases (MEV90) required to stain the iliac bone between the anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS) and the iliopubic eminence (IPE) while sparing the femoral nerve ...

Evidence Basis for Regional Anesthesia in Ambulatory Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: Part I—Femoral Nerve Block

Anesthesia and Analgesia, 2019
The optimal management of pain after ambulatory anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is unclear. Femoral nerve block (FNB) is purported to enhance postoperative analgesia, but its effectiveness in the setting of modern multimodal analgesia is
