Ultrasound guidance improves a continuous popliteal sciatic nerve block when compared with nerve stimulation.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Continuous sciatic nerve blockade at the popliteal level effectively alleviates postoperative pain after major foot and ankle surgery. No randomized controlled trials have previously compared the success rate of continuous sciatic nerve sensory blockade between ultrasound and nerve stimulation guidance. In the current study, we tested the hypothesis that ultrasound-gui...
متن کاملUltrasound reduces the minimum effective local anaesthetic volume compared with peripheral nerve stimulation for interscalene block.
BACKGROUND Previous studies have demonstrated that lower local anaesthetic (LA) volumes can be used for ultrasound (US)-guided interscalene brachial plexus block (ISB). However, no study has examined whether US can reduce the volume required when compared with nerve stimulation (NS) for ISB. Our aim was to do this by comparing the minimum effective analgesic volumes (MEAVs). METHODS After eth...
متن کاملمقایسه نتایج بلوک اینفراکلاویکولار با دو روش تحریک عصب و سونوگرافی به اضافه تحریک عصب
Background and aims: Infraclavicular nerve block (ICNB) is one of the most efficacious peripheral nerve blocks for upper extremity procedures, associated with several potential complications. Recently, some authors have recommended ultrasound-guided peripheral nerve block for ICNB. The current study is aimed to compare the outcomes of ICNB utilizing combined ultrasound guidance and neurostimula...
متن کاملUltrasound compared with nerve stimulation guidance for peripheral nerve catheter placement: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
BACKGROUND The aim of this meta-analysis was to compare the efficacy and safety of ultrasound (US) vs nerve stimulation (NS) guidance for peripheral nerve catheter placement. METHODS This meta-analysis was performed according to the PRISMA statement and the recommendations of the Cochrane Collaboration. For dichotomous outcomes relative risks [RRs; 95% confidence intervals (CIs)] were calcula...
متن کاملDifferent Learning Curves for Axillary Brachial Plexus Block: Ultrasound Guidance versus Nerve Stimulation
Little is known about the learning of the skills needed to perform ultrasound- or nerve stimulator-guided peripheral nerve blocks. The aim of this study was to compare the learning curves of residents trained in ultrasound guidance versus residents trained in nerve stimulation for axillary brachial plexus block. Ten residents with no previous experience with using ultrasound received ultrasound...
