FICNB is technically easy, effective for postoperative pain control after operation for femoral bone fracture and decreases the complications induced by systemic analgesic drugs. The severity of postoperative pain is affected by genetics, cultural and social factors across the world. In this study we assessed the efficacy of fascia iliaca compartment nerve block when it is used as part of multimodal analgesia after surgery for femoral bone fracture.METHODS: An institution-based case control study was conducted from September, 2013 to May, 2014. All patients who had been operated on under spinal anesthesia for femoral bone fracture were included. The patients divided into a FICNB group(n=20) and a control group(n=20). The FICNB group was given 30 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine at the end of the operation. Postoperative pain was assessed within the f irst 24 hours, i.e. at 15 minutes, 2 hours, 6 hours, 12 hours and 24 hours using 100 mm visual analogue scale(VAS), total analgesic consumption, and the time for the f irst analgesic request.RESULTS: VAS pain scores were reduced within the f irst 24 hours after operation in the FICNB group compared wtih the control group. VAS scores at 2 hours were taken as median values(IQR) 0.00(0.00) vs.18.00(30.00), P=0.001; at 6 hours 0.00(0.00) vs. 34.00(20.75), P=0.000; at 24 hours 12.50(10.00) vs. 31.50(20.75), P=0.004; and at 12 hours(17.80±12.45) vs.(29.95±12.40), P=0.004, respectively. The total analgesic consumption of diclofenac at 12 and 24 hours was reduced in the FICNB group, and the time for the fi rst analgesic request was signifi cantly prolonged(417.50 vs. 139.25 minutes, P=0.000).CONCLUSIONS: A single injection for FICNB could lead to postoperative pain relief, reduction of total analgesic consumption and prolonged time for the fi rst analgesic request in the FICNB group after surgery for femoral bone fracture. We recommend FICNB for analgesia after surgery for femoral bone fracture and for patients with femoral bone fracture at the emergency department.展开更多

Methods: A total of 170 patients with femoral neck fracture who underwent hip replacement in this hospital between September 2015 and August 2017 were divided into the control group (n=103) who underwent routine general anesthesia and the study group (n=67) who underwent fascia iliaca compartment block combined with general anesthesia after the anesthetic solutions were reviewed. The differences in serum contents of pain mediators, inflammatory factors and stress hormones were compared between the two groups of patients immediately after surgery as well as 12 h and 24 h after surgery.Results: Immediately after surgery, there was no statistically significant difference in serum contents of pain mediators, inflammatory factors and stress hormones between the two groups. 12 h and 24 h after surgery, serum pain mediators NPY, PGE2, 5-HT,β-EP and SP contents of study group were lower than those of control group;serum inflammatory factors CRP, TNF-α and IL-1β contents were lower than those of control group;serum stress hormones Cor, CA and ACTH contents were lower than those of control group.Conclusion: fascia iliaca compartment block combined with general anesthesia can effectively reduce the postoperative pain as well as the systemic inflammatory response and stress response induced by pain in patients with hip replacement.展开更多

Methods: A total of 74 cases of elderly patients who received hip replacement in Mianyang Central Hospital between December 2015 and June 2017 were selected and randomly divided into multimodal analgesia group (MMA group), and patient-controlled intravenous analgesia group (PCIA group), MMA received ropivacaine fascia iliaca compartment block, dezocine preemptive analgesia combined with patient-controlled intravenous analgesia, and PCAI group received patient-controlled intravenous analgesia. The levels of pain-related molecules and stress-related hormones in serum as well as the levels of stress-related immune molecules in peripheral blood were detected immediately after surgery and 12 h after surgery. Results: 12 h after surgery, serum SP, PGE2, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-10, FC, NE, E and GH levels and peripheral blood Foxp3+ cell fluorescence intensity of both groups of patients were significantly higher than those immediately after surgery, peripheral blood CD3+, CD4+, CD8+ cell fluorescence intensity were significantly lower than those immediately after surgery, serum SP, PGE2, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-10, FC, NE, E and GH levels and peripheral blood Foxp3+ cell fluorescence intensity of MMA group 12 h after surgery were significantly lower than those of PCIA group, and peripheral blood CD3+, CD4+, CD8+ cell fluorescence intensity were significantly higher than those of PCIA group. Conclusion: Ropivacaine fascia iliaca compartment block combined with dezocine multimodal analgesia can reduce the pain and stress response after hip replacement.展开更多
