Study Summary
This is a research study to determine if the concentration of local anesthetic through a catheter next to the nerves that go to the hip that is undergoing surgery, affects muscle strength and sense of touch experienced after surgery. This study is looking at the varying concentrations of local anesthetic placed through the catheter.
Primary Outcome
Quadriceps femoris muscle strength evaluated using a portable, hand-held, isometric force dynamometer (MicroFET2, Lafayette Instrument Company, Lafayette, IN) to measure the maximum voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) in a seated position. The study primary endpoint will be the difference in MVIC the morning following surgery compared with the preoperative MVIC, expressed as a percentage of the preoperative MVIC: (preop - postop ) / preop x 100.
