Obturator versus femoral nerve block for analgesia after total knee arthroplasty.

abstract：UNLABELLED:We determined whether two different devices for measuring near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)---the INVOS 4100 and the NIRO 300---produce similar cerebral oxygenation data during the CO(2) challenge test. Nineteen patients anesthetized with sevoflurane, 67% nitrous oxide in oxygen, and fentanyl were studied. A...
