Dose-finding Study: Popliteal Sciatic Nerve Block in Patients Undergoing Diabetic Foot Surgery
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Maintain the concentration of ropivacaine as same as those used in the previous participant: Maintain the same concentration of ropivacaine used in the previous participant with an 89% chance through a random assignment
Decrease the ropivacaine concentration by 0.05% from the concentration used in the previous participant: Decrease ropivacaine concentration by 0.05% from the concentration used in the previous participant with an 11% chance through a random assignment
Increase the ropivacaine concentration by 0.05% from the concentration used in the previous participant: Increase ropivacaine concentration by 0.05% from the concentration used in the previous participant.
Study summary
The purpose of this study was to determine the minimum effective dose of a local anesthetic for proper anesthesia for popliteal sciatic nerve block under ultrasound guidance in patients undergoing surgery for diabetic foot disease.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Median effective anesthetic concentration 90 (MEAC 90) — within 30 minutes from the popliteal sciatic block
Concentration of ropivacaine required for successful sciatic nerve block in 90% of all patients
