Thoracic paravertebral block.
THORACIC paravertebral block (TPVB) is the technique of injecting local anesthetic adjacent to the thoracic vertebra close to where the spinal nerves emerge from the intervertebral foramina. This results in ipsilateral somatic and sympathetic nerve blockade in multiple contiguous thoracic dermatomes above and below the site of injection. It is effective in treating acute and chronic pain of uni...
متن کاملTotal spinal anaesthesia in association with insertion of a paravertebral catheter.
An association between intercostal nerve block and the development of a total spinal is rare. Usually, subarachnoid injection is considered to have followed intraneural placement or inadvertent entrance into a dural cuff extending beyond an intervertebral foramen. We report a patient that followed injection of local anaesthetic into a paravertebral catheter sited at surgery in the thoracic para...
متن کاملThe use of a nerve stimulator for thoracic paravertebral block.
To the Editor:—I wish to congratulate Dr. Karmakar on his very thorough and informative review on paravertebral anesthesia and analgesia. 1Dr. Karmakar has overlooked one technique of paravertebral blockade that, in my opinion, has shown particular merit and is worthy of further investigation—the use of a nerve stimulator. To my knowledge, the use of a nerve stimulator as a guide to the perform...
متن کاملA systematic review of randomized trials evaluating regional techniques for postthoracotomy analgesia.
BACKGROUND Thoracotomy induces severe postoperative pain and impairment of pulmonary function, and therefore regional analgesia has been intensively studied in this procedure. Thoracic epidural analgesia is commonly considered the "gold standard" in this setting; however, evaluation of the evidence is needed to assess the comparative benefits of alternative techniques, guide clinical practice a...
متن کاملRegional analgesia for video-assisted thoracic surgery: a systematic review.
Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) is emerging as the standard surgical procedure for both minor and major oncological lung surgery. Thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA) and paravertebral block (PVB) are established analgesic golden standards for open surgery such as thoracotomy; however, there is no gold standard for regional analgesia for VATS. This systematic review aimed to assess differen...
