Influence of single shot and continuous peripheral nerve block on opioid consumption and perioperative pain management in patients undergoing total elbow arthroplasty
In this first study on PNB and CPNB in TEA, we showed that CPNB reduces perioperative opioid use and improves postoperative pain. SSA offers no significant advantage over CPNB in reducing opioid usage. Avoiding systemic opioids and their adverse effects is particularly beneficial for elderly patients.
