| - hypothesis | Locoregional anesthesia does not work as well in patients with the Ehlers-Danlos syndrome as in people who do not have this syndrome. |
|
| - Healt Condition(s) or Problem(s) studied | |
|
| - Inclusion criteria | For the Ehlers-Danlos group:
1. people with all types of Ehlers-Danlos except type IV, proven by a geneticist or a comparably qualified person;
2. 18 to 65 years old;
3. informed consent.
For the control group:
All subjects are matched with a patient from the Ehlers-Danlos group for age and sexe. |
|
| - Exclusion criteria | For Ehlers-Danlos patients:
1. Type IV Ehlers-Danlos;
2. co-existing disease which increases the risk of locoregional anesthesia, according to prudent daily clinical practice;
3. hereditary acquired or drug induced bleeding disorders;

|
| - Target number of participants | 50 |
|
| - Interventions | 1. An ulnar nerve block on the non-dominant arm with 3 ml lidocaine 2%;
2. application of 1.5 gram EMLA-cream on the dorsal side of the contralateral hand, covered with foil;
3. three times a fieldblock of 3 by 3 cm by means of three subcutaneous injections on the dorsal side of the thorax; one with lidocaine 1%, one lidocaine 2% and one with NaCl 0.9%. |
|
| - Primary outcome | Analgesia in the region of the ulnar nerve within 60 minutes after application of an ulnar nerve block.This will be demonstrated by increasing stimuli from a neurostimulator. If the subject does not regard 20 mA as painful there is of an adequate block. |
|
| - Secondary outcome | 1. Analgesia from the subcutanous injections and the topical application of EMLA cream;
2. Time of onset of analgesia;
3. Time of end of analgesia;
4. Duration of analgesia. |
