The effect of perineural dexamethasone on duration of sciatic nerve blockade: a randomized, double-blind study.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The mortality of patients suffering from acute decompensated liver disease treated in the intensive care unit (ICU) varies between 50% and 100%. Previously published data suggest that liver-specific score systems are less accurate compared with the ICU-specific scoring systems acute physiology and chronic he...
