Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to compare the effectiveness of adductor canal block (ACB) vs. femoral nerve block (FNB) in improving ambulation distance, reducing opioid use, and enhancing physical therapy participation after total knee arthroplasty (TKA).
- - Participants included 84 elective TKA patients, who were randomly assigned to receive either ACB or FNB, and their pain levels, opioid use, ambulation distances, and therapy participation were measured post-surgery.
- - Results showed that ACB significantly improved ambulation distance on the first postoperative day, but there were no differences in pain scores, opioid use, or ambulation distance by the second day.
Angelman syndrome arises by one of 4 genetic mechanisms. Patients often have craniofacial abnormalities, vagal hypertonia, skeletal muscle atrophy or underdevelopment, a history of seizure disorders, and pharmacodynamic unpredictability. Its pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, diagnosis and treatment options, and perioperative anesthetic considerations are presented.
