Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Time of latency to achieve sensitive block of T10.

    The interval of time between the withdrawal of the needle at the end of local anesthetic injection and the absence of response to sensory stimulus in the region corresponding to the T10.

    01 day.

  • Duration time of the sensory block of T10.

    Duration of anesthesia as for the sensory aspect through a needle stimulus in the anterior side of the foot.

    01 day.

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Sensory block intensity.

    02 days.

  • Motor block duration.

    02 days.

  • Cardiovascular safety.

    02 days.

  • Block failure.

    02 days.

  • Adverse events.

    02 days.
