Summary
Both perineural and systemic dexamethasone administration allows an increase in analgesic
duration of regional anesthesia.
There is a lack of data to determine wich route allows a longer analgesic effect.
This study aims to determine wether perineural dexamethasone allows a longer analgesic
duration than systemic route in combination with regional anesthesia (Ropivacaine 0.375%) for
front foot surgery.
