Summary

lumbosacral plexus block (LSPB) has been widely applied in orthopedics departments due to its advantages, including reduction in the application of opiates, decreasing the occurrence of acute pain, promoting early activation, and shortening the time of hospital stay. LSPB is a peripheral regional technique of anesthesia and analgesia, that provides a block of the main components of the lumbosacral plexus.

Detailed description

Traditional ultrasound-guided lumbar plexus block combined with sacral plexus block requires separate blocks at different sites, requiring the lateral decubitus or prone position, which may be suboptimal in patients with severe pain. we present an anterior approach for combined lumbar and sacral plexus blocks with a one-point puncture.

Conditions

• Lower Limb Fracture

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	one point combined Lumbar and sacral plexus block	performing an ultrasound-guided one-point combined Lumbar and sacral plexus block using a one-point puncture. Block success will be assessed using the perfusion index (PI) before and after performing the block
