UNLABELLED Conceição DB, Helayel PE, Oliveira Filho GR - A Comparative Study between Ultrasound- and Neurostimulation-Guided Axillary Brachial Plexus Block. BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The use of ultrasound in Regional Blocks is increasingly more frequent. However, very few studies comparing ultrasound and neurostimulation have been conducted. The objective of this study was to compare neurosti...

Ultrasound-guided peripheral nerve blocks facilitate ambulatory anesthesia for upper limb surgeries. Unilateral phrenic nerve blockade is a common complication after interscalene brachial plexus block, rather than the supraclavicular block. We report a case of severe respiratory distress and bilateral bronchospasm following ultrasound-guided supraclavicular brachial plexus block. Patient did no...

Background And Aims: The transversusabdominis plane block is a new rapidly expanding regional anesthesia technique that provide analgesia of Anterior abdominal wall surgeries. TransversusAbdomimis Plane block significantly reduces pain associated with lower abdominal surgeries. It may be used as primary anesthesia or Post operative analgesia.The present study aims to “Comparative study of 0.2% ...

Context: The use of ultrasound in regional anaesthesia has resulted in reduction in local anaesthetic volume and adverse effects. Aim : This study aims to compare the quality of analgesia and incidence of adverse effects using two different volumes of 0.5 % bupivacaine for clavicular surgeries by ultrasound guided combined interscalene and superficial cervical plexus block. Settings and Design:...

the evaluate the diagnostic value of image guided fine needle aspiration (fna) in breast lesions, the cytologic results of 401 patients were studied. all patients had either unpalpable masses or lesions who were hardly possible to localize by palpation and fna was performed by single radiologist under ultrasound guide in all cases. the cytologic results were divided into four categories (inconc...

The use of ultrasound in peripheral nerve blocks has become increasingly more frequent. Lower–extremity surgeries are mainly performed under general or central neuraxial anesthesia, ultrasound-guided combined block (PNB) can be a good alternative anesthetic technique, especially for high-risk patients who require continuous anticoagulation treatment and present with poor cardiovascular conditio...

Background Pain following laparoscopic surgeries is a major concern that has been managed by several modalities with varying results. Ultrasound-Guided Transversus Abdominis Plane Block (TAPB) considered modality may help decrease postoperative pain and opioid consumption its related side effects which contribute to reduction of hospital stay improvement in functional recovery.Objective The aim...

Background: To assess the effectiveness of repeated transvaginal ultrasound-guided ovarian interstitial laser treatment in the management of anovulatory patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Materials and Methods: A retrospective study was performed in our department on 27 anovulatory PCOS women who failed to respond to the first ultrasound-guided transvaginal ovarian interstitial las...

BACKGROUND While some research has been reported on the use of transvaginal ultrasound-guided aspiration of ovarian cysts, none has been reported for pseudocysts. Sometimes laparotomy patients experience recurrent pelvic psuedocysts for which they may need to undergo another laparotomy. The use of transvaginal ultrasound-guided aspiration of pelvic pseudocysts may make repeated laparotmies unne...
