Ultrasound versus nerve stimulation-guided interadductor approach for obturator nerve block: evaluation of injectate spread into the obturator canal in a randomized controlled trial [PDF]
Background This study aimed to compare the percentage of local anesthetic spread into the obturator canal between the nerve stimulation-guided interadductor approach (NS-INTAD) and the ultrasound-guided interadductor approach (US-INTAD), and to evaluate ...
