Upper limb nerve blocks
Brachial plexus blockade has enjoyed great popularity since it was first reported in 1884. As the ventral primary rami of cervical nerves 5–8 and a part of the first thoracic nerve emerge from the intervertebral foramina, they are invested in a fascial sheath that runs to a point distal to the axilla. Effective regional anaesthesia can be achieved with single or multiple injections at a variety...
متن کاملA review of nerve conduction studies in cases of suspected compression neuropathies of the upper limb.
INTRODUCTION Entrapment neuropathies, particularly those affecting upper limbs, are common reasons for referral for nerve conduction studies (NCS). However, concordance between clinical findings and NCS findings, especially in patients being considered for intervention including decompressive surgery, has not been assessed. METHODS We conducted a retrospective study using records from a terti...
متن کاملEvaluation and treatment of compression neuropathies of the upper limb
Compression neuropathies of the upper extremity can manifest with an obvious set of symptoms that are easily identified, such as with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). They can also appear with diffuse symptoms so similar or in coexistence with other conditions that they can be a challenge to identify, as is often the case in radial tunnel syndrome which closely resembles lateral epicondylitis in p...
متن کامل[Current views on the treatment of upper limb compression neuropathies].
The article presents current views about upper limb neuropathies, their treatment and clinical manifestations. The following conditions are described: carpal tunnel syndrome(CTS), cubital tunnel syndrome(CUTS), radial tunnel syndrome, and posterior nervus interosseus syndrome.
متن کاملNerve lesions and entrapment neuropathies of the upper limb
Peripheral nerve lesions in the neck, shoulder girdle and upper limb can occur anywhere along the extraspinal extent of the nerve – between the intervertebral foramen and the most distal nerve endings in the extremities. The function of the nerve becomes impaired either as the result of an entrapment phenomenon, or as the outcome of an injury causing bruising or elongation of the nerve tissue. ...
