Optimal pain management after total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains controversial. We perform a meta-analysis from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB) in THA. ⋯ Fascia iliaca compartment block was effective for pain relief during the early post-operative period after total hip arthroplasty. Meanwhile, it reduced the cumulative morphine consumption and the risk of opioid-related adverse effects.

Effects of fluoroscopy-guıded intraartıcular injectıon, suprascapular nerve block, and combınatıon therapy ın hemıplegıc shoulder paın: a prospective double-blınd, randomızed clınıcal study.
To investigate the effect and superiority of fluoroscopy-guided intraarticular shoulder injection (IAI), suprascapular nerve block (SSNB), and combination treatment in hemiplegic shoulder pain (HSP). ⋯ IAI, SSNB, and the combination treatments are reliable and effective treatment modalities that provide pain relief and an increase in shoulder passive ROMs in HSP.

This study modeled image-guided epidural drug delivery to test whether intraprocedural distribution of pre-injected contrast reliably predicts the neuroanatomical reach of resiniferatoxin-mediated nociceptive neurolysis. ⋯ Periganglionic resiniferatoxin/Tween80 induced bilateral ablation of spinal cord substance P despite exclusively unilateral targeting. These data suggest that the location of pre-injected contrast is an imperfect surrogate for the neuroanatomical range of drugs delivered to the dorsal epidural compartment that may fail to predict contralateral drug effects.
