Popis: Abstract Background There is a long latent period for the sciatic nerve block before a satisfactory block is attained. Changes in the temperature of local anesthetics may influence the characters of the peripheral nerve block. This study was designed to evaluate the effect of warming ropivacaine on the ultrasound-guided subgluteal sciatic nerve block. Methods Fifty-four patients for distal lower limbs surgery were randomly allocated into warming group (group W, n = 27) or room tempeture group (group R, n = 27) with the ultrasound-guided subgluteal sciatic nerve block. The group W received 30 ml of ropivacaine 0.5% at 30℃ and the group R received 30 ml of ropivacaine 0.5% at 23℃. The sensory and motor blockade were assessed every 2 min for 30 min after injection. The primary outcome was the onset time of limb sensory blockade. Results The onset time of sensory blockade was shorter in group W than in group R (16 (16,18) min vs 22 (20,23) min, p
