Abstract:
Background and objectivesThe superior cluneal nerves originate from the dorsal rami of primarily the upper lumbar spinal nerves. The nerves cross the iliac spine to innervate the skin and subcutaneous tissue over the gluteal region. The nerves extend as far as the greater trochanter and the area of innervation may overlap anterolaterally with the iliohypogastric and the lateral femoral cutaneous (LFC) nerves. A selective ultrasound-guided nerve block technique of the superior cluneal nerves does not exist. A reliable nerve block technique may have application in the management of postoperative pain after hip surgery as well as other clinical conditions, for example, chronic lower back pain. In the present study, the primary aim was to describe a novel ultrasound-guided superior cluneal nerve block technique and to map the area of cutaneous anesthesia and its coverage of the hip surgery incisions.MethodsThe study was carried out as two separate investigations. First, dissection of 12 cadaver sides was conducted in order to test a novel superior cluneal nerve block technique. Second, this nerve block technique was applied in a randomized trial of 20 healthy volunteers. Initially, the LFC, the subcostal and the iliohypogastric nerves were blocked bilaterally. A transversalis fascia plane (TFP) block technique was used to block the iliohypogastric nerve. Subsequently, randomized, blinded superior cluneal nerve blocks were conducted with active block on one side and placebo block contralaterally.ResultsSuccessful anesthesia after the superior cluneal nerve block was achieved in 18 of 20 active sides (90%). The area of anesthesia after all successful superior cluneal nerve blocks was adjacent and posterior to the area anesthetized by the combined TFP and subcostal nerve blocks. The addition of the superior cluneal nerve block significantly increased the anesthetic coverage of the various types of hip surgery incisions.ConclusionThe novel ultrasound-guided nerve block technique reliably anesthetizes the superior cluneal nerves. It anesthetizes the skin posterior to the area innervated by the iliohypogastric and subcostal nerves. It improves the anesthetic coverage of incisions used for hip surgery. Among potential indications, this new nerve block may improve postoperative analgesia after hip surgery and may be useful as a diagnostic block for various chronic pain conditions. Clinical trials are mandated.Trial registration numberEudraCT, 2016-004541-82.

Abstract:
Background Nerve puncture by the block needle and intraneural injection of local anesthetic are thought to be major risk factors leading to neurologic injury after peripheral nerve blocks. In this study, the author sought to determine the needle-nerve relation and location of the injectate during ultrasound-guided axillary plexus block. Methods Using ultrasound-guided axillary plexus block (10-MHz linear transducer, SonoSite, Bothel, WA; 22-gauge B-bevel needle, Becton Dickinson, Franklin Parks, NJ), the incidence of apparent nerve puncture and intraneural injection of local anesthetic was prospectively studied in 26 patients. To determine the onset, success rate, and any residual neurologic deficit, qualitative sensory and quantitative motor testing were performed before and 5 and 20 min after block placement. At a follow-up 6 months after the blocks, the patients were examined for any neurologic deficit. Results Twenty-two of 26 patients had nerve puncture of at least one nerve, and 21 of 26 patients had intraneural injection of at least one nerve. In the entire cohort, 72 of a total of 104 nerves had intraneural injection. Sensory and motor testing before and 6 months after the nerve injections were unchanged. Conclusions Under the conditions of this study, puncturing of the peripheral nerves and apparent intraneural injection during axillary plexus block did not lead to a neurologic injury.

Abstract:
Background: The overall incidence of complications following peripheral nerve blocks is very low. Peripheral nerve blocks performed under ultrasound guidance are widely thought to present a lower risk to direct needle trauma than paresthesia and nerve stimulation techniques and have been shown to decrease opioid consumption by providing analgesia directly to the site of injury. Currently, when a nerve block fails altogether or provides inadequate analgesia, pain and opioid consumption increases which in turn decrease patient satisfaction and increases healthcare costs. Concerns remain whether the benefits of opioid reduction outweigh the risk of inadvertent needle trauma and other potential complications when performing a nerve block replacement, or ‘rescue block’. Objective: Examine whether performing a rescue peripheral nerve block provides adequate analgesia to elicit a decrease in opioid consumption. Analyze the incidence of nerve injury following ultrasound-guided ‘rescue’ continuous peripheral nerve blocks. Methods: Data was retrospectively collected from patient electronic medical records from a Level 1 academic Trauma Center at Regional One Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee from March 1, 2019 to May 31 2021. Inclusion criteria was patients over 18 years of age at time of admission who received consecutive continuous peripheral nerve blocks in the same relative location during a time when the peripheral nerves were likely partially or fully anesthetized (a rescue block). The primary outcomes assessed were 24-hour opioid consumption prior to the initial continuous nerve block, just prior to and after the ‘rescue’ block. Adverse outcomes potentially due to performing a ‘rescue’ block were also examined, including direct needle trauma, nerve injury related to extended exposure to local anesthetics, and local anesthetic systemic toxicity. Types of nerve blocks performed, range and median number of catheter days, and reason for rescue block was recorded for all patients. All available electronic healthcare records were reviewed to identify potential injury. Nerve blocks were categorized into low and high risk for direct needle trauma based on the incidence of needle trauma found in the literature and whether the needle was required to be adjacent to a discrete nerve or nerve bundle in order to perform the procedure. Results: 55 patients were examined. Of the 55 patients, 5 had multiple locations both blocked and rescued, bringing the total rescue procedures examined up to 60. Additionally, 10 patients had their rescue site re-blocked multiple times due to either multiple surgeries, displacements, or duration of analgesia required bringing the total number of rescue blocks performed to 74. Patients that received an initial continuous peripheral nerve block consumed significantly fewer opioids during the 24 hour period following the block than the 24-hour period before the block was performed (P=0.033). Continuous peripheral nerve blocks (CNPB) were replaced or ‘rescued’ for two general reasons: Failed or Inadequate Analgesia (21) and to Extend the Utilization of adequately functioning infusions (35). Once a rescue nerve block was performed, there was no significant change in opioid consumption than after the original block (P=0.64). Of the 60 rescue blocks that were recorded, there were 0 adverse outcomes that were attributed to the rescue block procedure. Conclusion: Following failed CPNB or when performed to extend the utilization of CPNB infusions, ultrasound-guided ’rescue’ nerve blocks result in reduced opioid consumption to a similar level as the initial peripheral nerve block, and do not result in an increase in the incidence direct needle trauma. Given the relatively low incidence of needle trauma and other nerve block-related complications, larger studies are needed to confirm these initial findings, however, ultrasound provides numerous clinical strategies that can be employed that may reduce the incidence of direct needle trauma compared with traditional nerve localization techniques.

Abstract:
In order to monitor the effect of nerve block in postoperative analgesia more accurately, this paper puts forward the application research of ultrasonic real-time intelligent monitoring of nerve block in postoperative analgesia. Ultrasonic real-time intelligent monitoring of nerve block in upper limb surgery, lower limb surgery, and abdominal surgery combined with the nerve stimulator. The experiments show that there are 5 cases of adverse reactions when the nerve stimulator is only used, but no adverse reactions occur when combined with ultrasound-guided block. Continuous subclavian brachial plexus block with the ultrasound-guided nerve stimulator can clearly see the subclavian brachial plexus and its surrounding tissue structure, the direction of needle insertion in the plane, and the diffusion of narcotic drugs. The average success rate of block was up to 95.2%, which was significantly higher than that of nerve stimulator alone, and the success rate of recatheterization after the first failure was also improved. The average postoperative analgesia satisfaction was 85.6%, the average operation time was only 20 min, and the subclavian artery and pleura were avoided effectively. No pneumothorax and other complications occurred. The average success rate of ultrasound-guided subclavicular brachial plexus block in 1-2-year-old children was 97%, which was much higher than the average success rate of nerve stimulator localization with 63%. Ultrasound-guided nerve block not only directly blocks nerves under visual conditions but also helps to observe the structures around nerves and dynamically observe the diffusion of local anesthetics, which can significantly improve the accuracy and success rate of nerve block and reduce the incidence of complications.

Abstract:
The authors evaluated regional skin temperatures of the foot following the administration of a variety of local anesthetic nerve blocks with either Xylocaine (lidocaine hydrochloride) or Sensorcaine (bupivacaine hydrochloride). The study was carried out on ten randomized parallel groups of five subjects, each group being tested with one drug and one regional nerve block. The results indicated that both Xylocaine and Sensorcaine, when administered as a posterior tibial block, result in a significantly increased blood flow to the foot. Nerve blockade of the remaining nerves of the foot did not significantly increase the sympatholytic effect obtained by posterior tibial nerve block alone.

Abstract:
Background & objective: Inter-scalene brachial plexus block (ISB) is the gold standard for postoperative pain management in shoulder surgery. Although, this method has its side-effects and possibly complications. Supra-scapular nerve block and axillary nerve block have also been used in upper limb procedures. We compared ISB with the blockade of supra-scapular and axillary nerves (called shoulder block) for postoperative analgesia after shoulder arthroscopic surgical operation under ultrasound guidance (USG) and nerve stimulators. Methodology: It was a prospective, randomized, comparative study. Results: The VAS pain scores at different times postoperatively were not significantly different between the ISB and ShB groups (P = t 0.071, 0.28, 0.378, 0.358, 0.451 at 2, 4, 8, 16, and 24 h respectively. VAS 0 was significantly difference (P = 0.029) but still the VAS score was less than 3, so no pain killers were given. Conclusion: Ultrasound guided supra-scapular and axillary nerve blocks ae equally effective as inter-scalene brachial plexus block for postoperative analgesia in shoulder arthroscopic surgery with less side-effects.

Abstract:
Background Incomplete sensory blockade of the foot after sciatic nerve block in the popliteal fossa may be related to the motor response that was elicited when the block was performed. We investigated the appropriate motor response when a nerve stimulator is used in sciatic nerve block at the popliteal fossa. Methods Six volunteers classified as American Society of Anesthesiologists' physical status I underwent 24 sciatic nerve blocks. Each volunteer had four sciatic nerve blocks. During each block, the needle was placed to evoke one of the following motor responses of the foot: eversion, inversion, plantar flexion, or dorsiflexion. Forty milliliters 1.5% lidocaine was injected after the motor response was elicited at < 1 mA intensity. Sensory blockade of the areas of the foot innervated by the posterior tibial, deep peroneal, superficial peroneal, and sural nerves was checked in a blinded manner. Motor blockade was graded on a three-point scale. The width of the sciatic nerve and the orientation of the tibial and common peroneal nerves were also examined in 10 cadavers. Results A significantly greater number of posterior tibial, deep peroneal, superficial peroneal, and sural nerves were blocked when inversion or dorsiflexion was seen before injection than after eversion or plantar flexion (P < 0.05). Motor blockade of the foot was significantly greater after inversion. Anatomically, the tibial and common peroneal nerves may be separate from each other throughout their course. The sciatic nerve ranged from 0.9-1.5 cm in width and was divided into the tibial and common peroneal nerves at 8 +/- 3 (range, 4-13) cm above the popliteal crease. Conclusions Inversion is the motor response that best predicts complete sensory blockade of the foot. Incomplete blockade of the sciatic nerve may be a result of the size of the sciatic nerve, to separate fascial coverings of the tibial and common peroneal nerves, or to blockade of either the tibial or common peroneal nerves after branching from the sciatic nerve.

Subacromial impingement syndrome is the most common disorder of the shoulder. Abnormal superior translation of the humeral head is believed to be one of the major causes of this pathology. The overall purpose of this study was to better understand glenohumeral kinematics in normal healthy individuals using fluoroscopy to help comprehend the mechanism of shoulder impingement. This research was divided into three sections: a validation study to measure humeral head translation, a comparison between dynamic and static arm elevation and lastly, humeral head translation after a suprascapular nerve block. In the first study, fluoroscopy was used to take images of human cadaver shoulders. Scapular orientation was manipulated in different positions while the humerus was at 90 degrees of elevation. Humeral head translation was measured using two methods and was compared to the known translation. Additionally, the accuracy of the contour registration method to measure 2-D scapular rotations was assessed. For the second study, subjects elevated their dominant arm while fluoroscopic images were taken. An edge detection software was utilized to digitize points on both the humeral head and glenoid. Humeral head translation and scapular upward rotation were measured using a contour registration method with respect to the glenoid during arm elevation. Five different arm elevation angles were investigated to measure differences in humeral head translation between trials. There was no difference found between humeral head translation and scapular upward rotation between static and dynamic shoulder elevation. For the third study, humeral head translation was measured before and after a suprascapular never block. The humeral head was superiorly located and the scapula was more upwardly rotated after the block. The differences were observed during mid range of motion. This result showed that there was a compensatory increase in both humeral head translation and scapular upward rotation due to the nerve block. These results suggest that increasing muscular strength and endurance of the supraspinatus and infraspinatus muscle could prevent any increased superior humeral head translation. This may be beneficial in preventing shoulder impingement or rotator cuff tear over time. This dissertation includes unpublished co-authored materials.

Abstract:
Selective stimulation and conduction block of specific nerve fibers has been a major area of research in neuroscience. The potential clinical and neurophysiological applications have warranted reliable techniques for transiently blocking conduction through nerves. High Frequency Alternating Current (HFAC) waveforms have been found to induce a reversible and repeatable block in peripheral nerves; however the effect of these waveforms on the neural activity of individual fiber types is currently unknown. Understanding this effect is critical if clinical applications are to be pursued. This dissertation work utilized extracellular electrophysiological techniques to characterize the activity of different fiber type populations in peripheral nerves during application of HFAC waveforms. First, we investigated the phenomenon in the homogeneous unmyelinated nerves of the sea-slug, Aplysia californica. Although complete reversible block was demonstrated in these nerves, a non-monotonic relationship of block threshold to frequency was found which differed from previously published work in the field. We then investigated the effect of HFAC waveforms on amphibian mixed nerves and studied the response of specific fiber types by isolating different components of the compound action potential. We validated our results from the Aplysia nerves by determining the block thresholds of the larger diameter, myelinated A-fibers and comparing them with those of the smaller diameter, unmyelinated C-fibers. We also showed that block threshold behavior during application of the HFAC waveform depends on the nerve fiber type, and this property can be used to selectively block specific fiber types. Finally, we examined the recovery time after block induction in unmyelinated nerves and found that recovery from block was dependent on the duration of application of the HFAC waveform. The time-dependent distribution of the recovery time and the non-monotonic threshold behavior in the smaller diameter unmyelinated nerves indicate that multiple mechanisms are involved in block induction using HFAC waveforms, and these mechanisms are dependent not only on the blocking stimulus but also on the characteristics of the nerve fiber. Overall, this work demonstrates that HFAC waveforms may enable inherent peripheral nerve properties to be exploited for potential clinical applications related to the treatment of unwanted neural activity.

Abstract:
Providing comfort is a fundamental nursing responsibility. Unrelieved postoperative pain has adverse physiologic and psychologic effects that contribute to prolonged hospital admissions and significant discomfort to patients. Opioids are standard methods of postoperative analgesia for many surgical procedures. Unfortunately, the use of opioids is associated with side effects such as nausea and vomiting, urinary retention, ileus and respiratory depression. These side effects, with the added problem of inadequate pain control, result in patient dissatisfaction with surgical procedures. Paravertebral nerve block (PVB) is a regional anesthetic technique that has been shown to result in opioid sparing in many procedures including breast and hernia surgery. This study investigated the possibility of improved postoperative pain and nausea management when combining paravertebral nerve blocks with general anesthesia (GA) , compared to general anesthesia alone, for laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication surgery. The convenience sample consisted of 29 patients receiving surgery at the Mayo Clinic, Jacksonville, Florida. There was significant correlation between the type of anesthesia and pain at 12 hours postoperatively, indicating that those who received PVB had less pain than those receiving GA alone, at that time. Although there was no significant correlation between type of anesthesia and nausea, only one patient vomited and others had minimum to moderate nausea, postoperatively. The information attained from this research will be beneficial to nurses providing pain management for patient comfort in the outpatient surgery center.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: Which minimally invasive therapy is the best choice to alleviate pain for patients suffering from postherpetic neuralgia? Eligibility criteria: The eligibility criteria are interpreted under the PICOS (P, participants; I, interventions; C, comparison; O, outcomes; S, study design) framework. (1) P: ParticipantsInclusion criteria: Patients suffering from postherpetic neuralgia (the pain lasting more than 3 months after the onset of herpes zoster rash eruption or more than 1 month after the vesicles have healed).Exclusion criteria: 1. Patients who had other neuropathic pain; 2. Patients with acute or subacute zoster-related pain.(2) I: Interventions Inclusion criteria: Interventional treatments applied to PHN patients, as follows: 1) nerve block (including epidural block, intrathecal block, dorsal root ganglion block, intercostal nerve block, paravertebral block, erector spinae plane block);2) subcutaneous injection (including subcutaneous injection of normal saline, local anesthetics, corticosteroids, MeB12 as well as local infiltration);3) stellate ganglion block;4) subcutaneous botulinum toxin type A injection;5) pulsed radiofrequency with or without.

Abstract:
Condition being studied: ESPB as an emerging regional technique has been well established in many surgeries, including reduce opioid demands, decrease pain score and improver sleep quality, etc. But, apply ESPB in liver surgery is limiting and remains uncertain, it is time to conduct one meta-analysis to reveal the performance of ESPB in liver surgery. Eligibility criteria: All published full-article RCTs comparing the analgesic efficacy of ESPB with control in adult patients undergoing any liver surgeries were eligible for inclusion. There were no language restrictions, Moreover, we also excluded case reports, non-RCT studies, incomplete clinical trials, and any trials used multiple nerve blocks. We also excluded any conference abstracts which could not offer enough information about the study design, or by data request to the author.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: Although video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery is a minimally invasive surgical technique, the pain remains moderate to severe. We comprehensively compared the regional anesthesia methods for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. Eligibility criteria: All published full-article RCTs comparing the analgesic efficacy of investigated regional anesthesia technique or comparative blocks in adult patients undergoing any VATS were eligible for inclusion. There were no language restrictions. Moreover, we also excluded case reports, non-RCT studies, incomplete clinical trials, and any trials used multiple nerve blocks. We also excluded any conference abstracts which could not offer enough information about the study design, or by data request to the author.
