Abstract:

<strong>Background:</strong> The supraclavicular block provides effective anesthesia for the brachial plexus for surgical procedures at or below the elbow level. Traditionally, the landmark technique has been used, but this blind method often necessitates multiple needle attempts through trial and error, leading to prolonged procedure times, associated pain, discomfort, and potentially severe complications. Peripheral nerve locator, a newer technique, offers advantages such as reduced procedure time, less pain, and discomfort, and fewer complications. This study aimed to compare two techn

The number of obese patients has increased dramatically worldwide. Morbid obesity is associated with an increased incidence of medical comorbidities and restricts the application choices in anesthesiology.

We present a case report of a 31-year-old, ASA-PS II, super obese man (190 kg, 180 cm, BMI: 58 kg/m2) admitted to the emergency department with a type II segmental tibia shaft fracture and ankle dislocation after a vehicle accident.

Abstract:

Category: Ankle, Basic Sciences/Biologics Introduction/Purpose: Until recently, many regional anesthetic blocks were performed without the assistance of ultrasound, relying on methods such as anatomical landmarks and nerve stimulation. The use of ultrasound for peripheral nerve blocks has proven extremely useful for improving the efficacy of many regional anesthetic techniques. There remain a few nerve blocks which have lagged in employing the assistance of ultrasound consistently, one of which is the ankle block. This block is commonly utilized for either surgical anesthesia or post-operative

Retroperitoneal neurofibromas are rare tumors, with an incidence of 3-5% for all neurofibromas. The Schwann cells in the peripheral nerve give rise to these histologically benign tumors. They can be hard to diagnose and treat because of where they are located and their potential to invade the surrounding area and press on nerve roots or other structures. Herein, we report a 17-year-old male patient, who had a complaint of low back pain and pain radiating to the legs, especially on the right side, for one year.

Postoperative analgesia is an important aspect of anesthesia care since pain problems affect both physical and mental derangement, resulting in delayed recovery.

Nowadays, the TAP block could also be used to reduce the need for postoperative opioid use, to extend the period of first analgesia request, and to provide more effective pain relief while decreasi

Abstract:

“The secret of success is constancy of purpose” – Benjamin Disraeli, British politician Success and failure go side by side in regional anesthesia. No anesthesiologist can claim a 100% success record while giving nerve blocks. Hence, it is always better to focus on how to prevent causes of block failure rather than focusing on managing a failed block. Abdallah and Brull did a comprehensive literature hunt to find out the meaning of block “success” which were used by various authors in their studies and found that it was highly variable and there was lack of consensus regarding its meaning [1].

Abstract:

Background: Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is associated with multiple mechanisms involving peripheral and central nervous system pathologies. Among percutaneous treatments offered, radiofrequency thermocoagulation (RFT) is associated with longer duration of pain relief. Mostly due to anatomic variation, cannulation of the foramen ovale using the Hartel approach has a failure rate of 5.17%. Objectives: To report safety and efficacy of continuous RFT with an alternative to Hartel anterior approach under computed tomography (CT) guidance in patients with classic TN.

: This review examines the use of novel US-guided nerve blocks in clinical practice. Erector spinae block is a regional anesthesia technique doing by injecting a local anesthetic among the erector spinae muscle group and transverse processes. The phrenic nerve is a branch of the cervical plexus, arising from the anterior rami of cervical nerves C3, C4, and C5. The quadratus lumborum muscle is located along the posterior abdominal wall. It originates from the transverse process of the L5 vertebral body, the iliolumbar ligament, and the iliac crest. US-guided peripheral nerve procedures have a c

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Over the last decade, several authors have reported that percutaneous peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) can be used to assist in verifying the position of the procedure needle tip in relation to nerve structures, and that the combined technique using both ultrasound (US) guidance and PNS may serve as a reliable method for confirmation of the correct position of the procedure needle tip. It has also been reported that, when combined with US guidance, PNS may increase the success rate of pain management interventions. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this technical report was to standardize a

IntroductionInadvertent intraneural injection is not infrequent during peripheral nerve blocks. For this reason, injection pressure monitoring has been suggested as a safeguard method that warns the clinician of a potentially hazardous needle tip location. However, doubts remain whether it is superior to the sonographic nerve swelling in terms of earlier detection of the intraneural injection.MethodsAn observational cadaveric study was designed to assess injection pressures during an ultrasound-guided intraneural injection of the median nerve.

The specific aim of this study was to develop a novel peripheral block for shoulder surgeries that would avoid phrenic nerve involvement and associated hemi‐diaphragm paralysis, while still providing adequate anesthesia of the targeted nerves to provide a sui
