Comparación de la eficacia y seguridad de tres técnicas analgésicas (epidural, bloqueo femoral y bloqueo femoral-ciático) en el postoperatorio de prótesis total de rodilla

A sciatic nerve block combined with a femoral nerve block attenuates pain more effectively and is associated with less postoperative morphine consumption in comparison with a femoral nerve block alone. Peripheral nerve block techniques have fewer adverse side effects than epidural analgesia.
