NYSORA - The New York School of Regional Anesthesia http://www.nysora.com/files.php?file= http://www.nysora.com/ Anatomy Of The Lumbosacral Spine http://www.nysora.com/jnysora/volume10/3131-anatomy_lumbosacral_spine.html JNYSORA Volume 10 D, d M Y H:i:s O Descriptive anatomy of the lumbosacral spine. The Anatomical Characteristics Of A Common Epineural Sheath In The Popliteal Fossa http://www.nysora.com/jnysora/volume10/3130-anatomy_of_epineural_sheath.html JNYSORA Volume 10 D, d M Y H:i:s O To investigate the possible role of a common continuous epineural sheath [1], we examined the popliteal fossa in lower legs of cadavers for the existence and continuity of a tissue sheath surrounding the sciatic nerve and its two main divisions. Regional Anesthesia in the United States: The Use of Peripheral Nerve Blocks in the USA http://www.nysora.com/jnysora/volume10/3125-use_of_pnbs_in_usa.html JNYSORA Volume 10 D, d M Y H:i:s O The results of this survey point out that the American Society of Regional Anesthesia (ASRA) and its membership are significant promoters of the regional anesthesia and peripheral nerve blocks. Lower Extremity Nerve Blocks - An Update http://www.nysora.com/jnysora/volume10/3129-lower_extremity_pnb_updade.html JNYSORA Volume 10 D, d M Y H:i:s O The introduction of long acting local anesthetics with better safety profile, as well as better equipment for continuous techniques have further expanded the utility of peripheral nerve blocks. These developments, coupled with an increased emphasis on teaching of regional blocks by residency training programs and organized anesthesia societies are likely to result in a wider use of these techniques in the years to come. Popliteal Block For Foot Surgery: Posterior Or Lateral Approach? http://www.nysora.com/jnysora/volume10/3126-popliteal_block_posterior_vs_lateral.html JNYSORA Volume 10 D, d M Y H:i:s O The aim of this study was to test the clinical utility of the lateral approach to popliteal block and compare its effectiveness and patient acceptance to that of the posterior approach. Nerve Blocks For Postoperative Analgesia: Choices After Common Lower Extremity Procedures http://www.nysora.com/jnysora/volume10/3128-pnb_for_postoperative_analgesia.html JNYSORA Volume 10 D, d M Y H:i:s O This review will discuss the advantages and limitations of various nerve block techniques when used for postoperative pain management for several common surgical indications. Posterior Versus Lateral Approaches To Popliteal Nerve Block http://www.nysora.com/jnysora/volume10/3127-politeal_block_approach.html JNYSORA Volume 10 D, d M Y H:i:s O The need to position the patient in the prone position is the main disadvantage of the posterior approach to the sciatic nerve block in the popliteal fossa (popliteal block; PB), and may preclude the use of the PB in patients who could benefit the most from this technique (i.e. advanced pregnancy, morbid obesity, spine and hemodynamic instability, mechanical ventilation). Peripheral Nerve Blocks For Short Saphenous Vein Stripping In Outpatients: A Comparison With Spinal Anesthesia http://www.nysora.com/jnysora/volume10/3124-pnb_for_short_saphenous_vein_stripping.html JNYSORA Volume 10 D, d M Y H:i:s O In this study we tested the hypothesis that peripheral nerve blocks will provide adequate anesthesia, faster recovery and better postoperative pain control than spinal anesthesia for outpatients undergoing SSVS.
