May support rapid analgesia via femoral block in pediatric femoral fractures; hypothesis-generating and requires controlled confirmation.
Does femoral nerve blockade with 0.5% bupivacaine improve analgesia in children with fracture of the middle third of the femoral shaft?
Femoral nerve blockade with 0.5% bupivacaine provides prompt and effective analgesia for children with femoral shaft fractures.
