Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study Clinical TrialLevobupivacaina, bupivacaina racemica e ropivacaina nel blocco del plesso brachiale.
To compare clinical profiles of levobupivacaine, racemic bupivacaine and ropivacaine at equipotent doses in axillary brachial plexus block in the orthopaedic surgery of wrist and hand. ⋯ In our experience levobupivacaine has been demonstrated to be a good substitute for racemic bupivacaine. Compared to ropivacaine, levobupivacaine induces a longer duration of postsurgery analgesia and, in our opinion, this datum seems to be the most significant.
