Can we use ''coin sign'' image to predict block success after performance of sciatic nerve block?

چکیده
Ultrasound guidance during peripheral nerve block is a revolutionary approach in clinical practice. For a successful block, local anesthetics (LA) should surround the nerve circumferentially. Different definitions have been used to describe the ultrasound image for a successful block. For example, in the infraclavicular area, “U”-shaped LA distribution is suggested, whereas “doughnut sign” is recommended for small peripheral nerves of the body.[1,2]

Ultrasound-guided technology versus neurostimulation for sciatic nerver block: a meta-analysis.
BACKGROUND Sciatic nerve block is widely used for anesthesia and analgesia in lower limb surgery, traditional method used for sciatic nerve block is nerve stimulation guidance. Whether the use of ultrasound-guided technology can increases the success rate of sciatic nerve block and provide other benefits are not defined. This meta-analysis was aimed to clarify this issue. METHOD We searched P...
متن کاملPeripheral nerve blocks improve analgesia after total knee replacement surgery.
UNLABELLED Total knee replacement (TKR) produces severe postoperative pain. Peripheral nerve blocks can be used as analgesic adjuncts for TKR, but the efficacy of femoral nerve blocks alone is controversial. The sciatic nerve innervates posterior regions of the knee; thus, performance of both sciatic and femoral nerve blocks may be necessary to improve analgesia after TKR. We performed this stu...

OBJECTIVE Block of the sciatic nerve at the popliteal fossa can be performed using the ultrasound machine; it may be proximally or distally to the bifurcation of the sciatic nerve using lateral, medial, or posterior approaches. It is frequently used for surgeries below the knee specially the foot and ankle operations. PURPOSE This study compares one and two injections of the sciatic nerve in ...

Labat's classic approach to the sciatic nerve has not been able to show which motor response of the foot provides a more frequent rate of complete sensory and motor block. In this prospective, randomized, double-blind study, we compared plantar flexion with dorsiflexion with regard to onset time and efficacy of sciatic nerve block using the classic posterior approach. A total of 80 patients und...

UNLABELLED BACKGROUND The widespread of hallux valgus surgery in a day care setting enhanced the role of regional anaesthesia in the last few years. Sciatic nerve block at popliteal fossa has been shown to provide safe and effective analgesia. Our purpose was to compare the success rate and performance time of popliteal block during resident's training for regional anaesthesia by using nerve...
