Minimum effective local anesthetic volume for surgical anesthesia by subparaneural, ultrasound-guided popliteal sciatic nerve block
Because of its rapid onset time, recent years have seen an increase in the use of ultrasound (US)-guided popliteal sciatic nerve block (PSNB) via subparaneural injection for induction of surgical anesthesia. Moreover, in below-knee surgery, combined blocks, as opposed to sciatic nerve block alone, have become more common. These combined blocks often require a large volume of local anesthetic (L...
متن کاملUltrasound Guidance for Epidural Anesthesia
We propose an augmented reality system to automatically identify lumbar vertebral levels and the lamina region in ultrasound-guided epidural anesthesia. Spinal needle insertion procedures require careful placement of a needle, both to ensure effective therapy delivery and to avoid damaging sensitive tissue such as the spinal cord. An important step in such procedures is the accurate identificat...
متن کاملUltrasound guidance in regional anaesthesia.
The technology and clinical understanding of anatomical sonography has evolved greatly over the past decade. In the Department of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care Medicine at the Medical University of Vienna, ultrasonography has become a routine technique for regional anaesthetic nerve block. Recent studies have shown that direct visualization of the distribution of local anaesthetics with high-f...
متن کاملUltrasound guidance for regional anaesthesia.
Editor—As a proponent of ultrasound-guided regional anaesthesia, I enjoyed reading the excellent case series by Karmakar and colleagues. 1 However, I have reservations about a number of the conclusions drawn in the accompanying editorial by Hopkins. 2 I agree that the recent regional anaesthesia ultrasound literature has many studies that lack equipoise. However, this fact surely reinforces our...
متن کاملUltrasound guidance in peripheral regional anesthesia: philosophy, evidence-based medicine, and techniques.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This article introduces the use of ultrasound to facilitate peripheral regional anesthesia. RECENT FINDINGS Regional anesthesia, despite its well known clinical benefits, has not gained the popularity of general anesthesia. This is secondary to multiple shortcomings including a defined failure rate, lack of simplicity, and the potential for patient discomfort or injury. Many...
