Summary
Effect of dexamethasone added to bupivacaine for femoral nerve block on the quality of postoperative analgesia following total knee arthroplasty: A randomized, double blinded, controlled study.Achieving adequate analgesia after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) can be a challenging; femoral nerve block (FNB) has been investigated and found to improve pain control following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Mixing local anesthetic with adjuvant drugs improve the quality of analgesia from peripheral nerve blocks. We hypothesized that; adding dexamesathone to bupivacaine for continuous femoral nerve block provides better pier-operative analgesia than standard CFNB
