Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Modified Shamrock approach
Patients undergoing orthopedic procedures of the lower extremeties are going to be studied. A modified Shamrock approach of the lumbar plexus is going to be used for postoperative analgesia, using an ultrasound-guided technique combined to a nerve stimulatior. The technique is going to be assessed as for accuracy, and safety.
lumbar plexus block
Patients undergoing orthopedic procedures of the lower extremeties are going to be studied. A modified Shamrock approach of the lumbar plexus is going to be used for postoperative analgesia, using an ultrasound-guided technique combined to a nerve stimulatior. The technique is going to be assessed as for accuracy, and safety.
