Ultrasound-guided suprascapular nerve block technique.
BACKGROUND In this article, we describe a case report of using real-time, high-resolution ultrasound guidance to facilitate blockade of the suprascapular nerve. We describe a case report and technique for using a portable ultrasound scanner (38 mm broadband (13-6 MHz) linear array transducer (SonoSite Micromaxx SonoSite, Inc. 21919 30th Drive SE Bothwell W. A..)) to guide suprascapular nerve bl...
متن کاملUltrasound-guided Sciatic Nerve Block: Posterior Approach
The sciatic nerve blockade is routinely done for surgery and pain management of the lower extremity and is one of the commonly used techniques in our practice. When performed in a systematic manner, it is associated with a high success rate.1,2 It is particularly well suited for surgery on the knee, calf, ankle and foot. It provides complete anaesthesia of the leg below knee with the exception ...
متن کاملUltrasound guided posterior femoral cutaneous nerve block.
The posterior femoral cutaneous nerve (PFCN) is a branch of the sacral plexus. It needs to be implemented as a complementary block for anesthesia or in the surgeries necessitating tourniquet in the suitable cases. We consider target oriented block concept within the PFCN block in the anesthesia implementations with the emergence of ultrasonic regional anesthesia in the practice and with the bet...
متن کاملSoleus H-reflex to S1 nerve root stimulation.
H-reflexes in normals were elicited by percutaneous electrical and magnetic stimulation of proximal nerve roots at the cauda equina. H-M interval to S1 nerve root stimulation at the level of the S1 foramen was 6.8 +/- 0.33 ms, with side to side difference of 0.16 +/- 0.13 ms. Compression/ischemia of the sciatic nerve in the mid-thigh abolished the H-reflex to stimulation of the tibial nerve at ...
متن کاملCurrent threshold for nerve stimulation depends on electrical impedance of the tissue: a study of ultrasound-guided electrical nerve stimulation of the median nerve.
BACKGROUND Understanding the mechanisms causing variation in current thresholds for electrical nerve stimulation may improve the safety and success rate of peripheral nerve blocks. Electrical impedance of the tissue surrounding a nerve may affect the response to nerve stimulation. In this volunteer study, we investigated the relationship between impedance and current threshold needed to obtain ...
