Effects of lumbar nerve root block for intermittent claudication due to both lumbar spinal canal stenosis and peripheral arterial disease

Effects of lumbar nerve root block for intermittent claudication due to both lumbar spinal canal stenosis and peripheral arterial disease

In 23 patients with intermittent claudication due to both lumbar spinal canal stenosis (LCS) and peripheral arterial disease (PAD), we evaluated effects of lumbar nerve root block (RB) by skin temperature difference, claudication distance and ABI (ankle brachial pressure index) between before and af...

Zusammenfassung:In 23 patients with intermittent claudication due to both lumbar spinal canal stenosis (LCS) and peripheral arterial disease (PAD), we evaluated effects of lumbar nerve root block (RB) by skin temperature difference, claudication distance and ABI (ankle brachial pressure index) between before and after RB. The skin temperature (℃) before and after RB were 28.9±2.6 and 31.4±2.5, a statistically significant difference (p
