Get Asra 45th Annual Regional Anesthesiology & Acute Pain Medicine Meeting 2020-2024

Regional anesthesia is the preferred anesthetic technique for patients undergoing orthopedic surgery because it is associated with less postoperative pain and nausea, a lower incidence of blood clots, less blood loss, and a lower infection rate compared with general anesthesia.

Risks and benefits of regional anesthesia Better pain control than intravenous narcotics, Earlier recovery of bowel function, Less need for systemic opioids (narcotics) and less nausea as a result, Easier breathing resulting from better pain control, Easier participation in physical therapy.

Ideally, multimodal pain management techniques should be used to try to lessen the amount of general anesthesia that is needed for a given procedure. For dentistry and oral surgery, one of the most effective ways to help block a painful stimulus is to use regional anesthesia.

(2)Regional anaesthesia (RA), defined as a brachial plexus block with local anaesthetics. was the drug used in almost all cases. Sedation with or was given in some of these cases.

Regional anesthesia seems to have benefits against general anesthesia due to lower rate of perioperative and postoperative complications, lower cost and length of stay. This is more evident in elderly population or patients with comorbidities.

Two of the most frequently used are femoral nerve block, which is produced by injection in the leg region, and brachial plexus block, which is produced by injection in the arm and shoulder region. These blocks are frequently performed for surgery in the knee, shoulder, or arm.

The sitting position is appropriate for spinal anesthesia with a hyperbaric solution. Either left or right lateral decubitus positions are viable options as well. After the patient is in the proper position, the access site is identified by palpation.

Regional anesthesia consists of infiltrating a peripheral nerve with an anesthetic agent and blocking transmission to avoid or relieve pain. It differs from general anesthesia as it does not affect the patient's consciousness level to relieve pain.

The main types are: Peripheral nerve blocks. This is a shot near a specific nerve or group of nerves. ... Epidural and spinal anesthesia. Medicine is given near the spinal cord and the nerves around it. ... Intravenous (IV) regional anesthesia. This is also called a Bier block.

Regional anesthesia. It numbs a larger (but still limited) part of the body and does not make the person unconscious. Spinal and epidural anesthesia are examples of regional anesthesia.
