Technique

This video tutorial discusses the technique of performing the continuous femoral nerve block (CFNB). This block is typically used for painful knee and hip surgery. A modification of this block (watch this space) is being developed to ensure spread to the entire lumbar plexus. The PECAN block (posterior extracapsular acetabular nerve block) – the hip counterpart of the IPACK for the knee is also under development
