Core Tip
Core Tip: Ultrasound-guided nerve block is the main anesthetic method for surgical bone fracture reduction. This study found that the ultrasound-guided nerve block combined with dexmedetomidine has a good anesthetic effect during the operative reduction of lower limb fractures and has little effect on the hemodynamics of patients.
