A Comparison of the Effect on Postoperative Pain between Lateral Femoral Cutaneous Nerve Block and Local Infiltration Anesthesia after Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Randomized Trial
Abstract:Aims: No gold standard for pain management after total hip arthroplasty (THA) exists. This prospective, randomized, open-label study aimed to determine whether lateral femoral cutaneous nerve block and local infiltration analgesia (LIA) were effective analgesic adjuvants to femoral nerve block (FNB) after THA.
Study Design: Prospective, randomized, open-label trial.
Place and Duration of Study: Department of Anesthesia, Nagasaki Rosai Hospital, Sasebo, Japan between April 2019 and May 2020.
