The classic/pubic and inguinal ONB methods are the two primary approaches used. The classic and inguinal ONB methods are two techniques for anesthetizing the obturator nerve, and each method may result in different respective outcomes. We aimed to compare the efficacy of the classic and inguinal methods. We presumed the inguinal approach to be an overall superior technique because it was recently invented and has been reported to provide numerous benefits. This study included randomized controlled trials comparing classic and inguinal approaches to ONB. Two independent investigators extracted study-level data for a random-effects meta-analysis of the comparison between the classic approach and inguinal approaches. We identified five studies comprising 312 patients. The pooled results revealed a higher success rate (risk ratio, 1.15; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.04-1.27), fewer puncture attempts (mean difference, -0.84; 95% CI, -1.55 to -0.12), and shorter procedure time (mean difference, -28.87; 95% CI, -47.19 to -10.54) for patients given inguinal ONB. The inguinal approach is, overall, the superior method for performing the ONB procedure. The inguinal method resulted in a higher success rate, fewer puncture attempts, and shorter procedure time.","PeriodicalId":8482,"journal":{"name":"Asian journal of anesthesiology","volume":"60 1 1","pages":"1-10"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41480620","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
