Summary

This study aims to assess the effect of twin subparaneural injection into individual paraneural sheaths of Common Peroneal Nerve (CPN) and Tibial Nerve (TN) below their point of divergence from the sciatic nerve on the sensory motor blockade after Popliteal Sciatic Nerve Block (PSNB) at the popliteal fossa (back of the thigh) for patients requiring lower limb surgeries.

PROCEDURE

Popliteal Sciatic nerve block

Patients schedule for lower limb surgery under regional anesthesia will receive ultrasound guided subparaneural popliteal sciatic nerve block. After identification of the common peroneal nerve and tibial nerve, local anesthetic agents will be injected close to each nerve below the point of divergence at the popliteal fossa. The spread of the drug and the sensory and motor function of that limb will be assessed regularly till it is ready for surgery.
