Regional anaesthesia for outpatient knee arthroscopy: a randomized clinical comparison of two different anaesthetic techniques

Abstract: In patients receiving elective outpatient knee arthroscopy, using a combined sciatic-femoral nerve block with 25 ml of mepivacaine 20 mg ml(-1) and a multiple injection technique results in a slightly longer preoperative time but provides similarly effective anaesthesia with no differences in home discharge times as compared to spinal anaesthesia with 8 mg hyperbaric bupivacaine.

“…It has been reported that medical treatment was needed after 230 minute in spinal anesthesia group and after 310 min in sciatic and femoral block group, for one patient in each group at postoperative period (8). In a study investigating the sciatic and femoral block and spinal anesthesia conducted by Casati et al, (22) it has been reported that postoperative analgesia was provided for all groups. While any patient has received any analgesics in the sciatic and femoral group, tramadol on analgesia purpose was administered to 4 (16%) patients in spinal group along the postoperative 24 hours.…”

“…Contudo, apesar da dose, se o nervo ciático fosse bloqueado simultaneamente ao bloqueio femoral, ocorreria perda da simplicidade da técnica com aumento dos riscos, não justificando portanto os benefícios. O tempo de analgesia observado com o bloqueio 3 em 1 neste estudo (13,1 ± 2,47 horas) corrobora o observado por outros autores, em que a analgesia foi de 15 horas com bupivacaína a 0,25% 1 , 14 a 23 horas com bupivacaína a 0,25% 41,44,45 e de 11 e 13 horas com ropivacaína a 0,75% e a 0,5% respectivamente [44][45][46][47] . A técnica clássica de Winnie, proposta para o bloqueio 3 em 1, utiliza 20 ml de anestésico.…”
