Continuous Regional Anesthesia for Septic Limb Orthopedic Surgery (ACOSM)

September 17, 2013 updated by: University Hospital, Strasbourg, France

This study aims to assess the safety of using continuous regional anesthesia for post-operative analgesia during septic limb orthopedic surgery.

The study hypothesis is that continuous regional anesthesia would not induce septic complication in the operated limb and could improve post-operative recovery.
