Wound infiltration catheter
Wound catheter with multiple and laterally aligned holes is inserted through the intact skin via an 16G iv catheter 2 cm proximal-laterally from the proximal end of the dorsomedial skin incision and placed subcutaneously through the wound and medially around the first metatarsal so that the tip projects into the interdigital space 1/2.
NaCl 0.9%
The catheter is connected to the perfusor line filled with saline 0.9% to allow continuous wound infiltration at a rate of 2 ml/h for 24 hours.
Ropivacaine 0.2%
The catheter is connected to the perfusor line filled with Ropivacaine 0.2% to allow continuous wound infiltration at a rate of 2 ml/h for 24 hours.
