Can Ultrasound of the Tibial Nerve Detect Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy?
OBJECTIVE Peripheral nerve imaging by portable ultrasound (US) may serve as a noninvasive and lower-cost alternative to nerve conduction studies (NCS) for diagnosis and staging of diabetic sensorimotor polyneuropathy (DSP). We aimed to examine the association between the size of the posterior tibial nerve (PTN) and the presence and severity of DSP. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We performed a c...
متن کاملPainful Diabetic Neuropathy
N europathic pain exerts a substantial impact on quality of life, particularly by causing considerable interference in sleep, daily activities, and enjoyment of life. Chronic neuropathic pain is present in 13–26% of diabetic patients (1– 4). In a recent survey from Augsburg, Germany, the prevalence of painful polyneuropathy was found to be 13.3% in diabetic subjects, 8.7% in individuals with im...
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 کاملUltrasound-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...
