BackgroundNeuromuscular electrical stimulator (NMES) devices increase blood flow to the lower limb by a process of intermittent muscular contraction initiated transdermal stimulus common peroneal nerve. However, its effects on localized microvascular supply wounds are unknown. This study is single-center open label measuring effect neuromuscular stimulation nerve within wound bed arterial leg u...

BACKGROUND Neural stimulation is an important method used to activate or inhibit action potentials of the neuronal anatomical targets found in the brain, central nerve and peripheral nerve. The neural stimulator system produces biphasic pulses that deliver balanced charge into tissue from single or multichannel electrodes. The timing and amplitude of these biphasic pulses are precisely controll...

This article describes a hitherto undescribed technique of administering local anesthesia to undertake a supt:rtiuial partrtidectomy. The technique is based on precise nerve blocks keeping in mind the regional nerve supply and the facial dermatumes. The advantages of such an anesthesia are, a conscious patient allows identification of the facial nerve and testing the integrity of its branches w...

BACKGROUND Recently, ultrasound has been commonly used. Ultrasound-guided interscalene brachial plexus block (IBPB) by posterior approach is more commonly used because anterior approach has been reported to have the risk of phrenic nerve injury. However, posterior approach also has the risk of causing nerve injury because there are risks of encountering dorsal scapular nerve (DSN) and long thor...
