Conditioning Electrical Stimulation for Patients with Moderate or Severe Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Double Blinded Randomized Controlled Trial

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) can drastically impair one's ability to work and interferes with activities of daily living. We recently demonstrated that, in rodents, conditioning electrical stimulation (CES) delivered to the nerve 7 days prior to surgery imparts a conditioning lesion‐like effect by accelerating the rate of regeneration along ...

Advances and Prospects of Stereotactic Radiosurgery and Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiotherapy: Evolving Paradigms in Precision Oncology

Med Research, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract outlines the progressive development and impact of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). Technological Evolution illustrates the transition from brachytherapy with single‐dose, LDR/HDR schedules to fractionated radiotherapy, three‐dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) and Gamma Knife ...

Unique Phrenic Nerve-Sparing Regional Anesthetic Technique for Pain Management after Shoulder Surgery

Case Reports in Anesthesiology, 2017
Background. Ipsilateral phrenic nerve blockade is a common adverse event after an interscalene brachial plexus block, which can result in respiratory deterioration in patients with preexisting pulmonary conditions.

Does local anesthetic temperature affect the onset and duration of ultrasound-guided infraclavicular brachial plexus nerve block?: a randomized clinical trial

Brazilian Journal of Anesthesiology, 2021
Background: Infraclavicular brachial plexus nerve block is a commonly performed anesthesiology technique in the upper extremity. Local anesthetics may be administered at different temperatures for both neuraxial and peripheral nerve blocks.

Optimal Site of the Reference Electrode for Recording the Compound Muscle Action Potential of the Deltoid Muscle

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims For recording the compound muscle action potential (CMAP) of the deltoid muscle, the reference electrode over the acromion (Ac) has been used to avoid contamination of responses from other arm muscles to the distal tendon (DT). A recent article recommended the sternum (St) as the reference electrode.

Nalbuphine as an adjuvant to 0.5% bupivacaine for ultrasound-guided supraclavicular brachial plexus blockade

Indian Journal of Pain, 2016
Background: Brachial plexus block is a reliable, regional anesthetic technique for upper arm surgeries. Opioid agonist-antagonists are also used as adjuvant to enhance the analgesia of bupivacaine.

Nerve localization techniques for peripheral nerve block and possible future directions [PDF]

, 2015
Ultrasound guidance is now a standard nerve localization technique for peripheral nerve block (PNB). Ultrasonography allows simultaneous visualization of the target nerve, needle, local anesthetic injectate and surrounding anatomical structures. Accurate

Neurophysiological Effect of Transcutaneous Electrical Spinal Cord Stimulation in Chronic Complete Spinal Cord Injury

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
TESCS‐ABT induced neurophysiological changes in individuals with chronic complete SCI, however these did not consistently translate into functional improvements. These findings highlight the role of residual supraspinal connectivity and inform future research to optimise this neurotechnology for SCI rehabilitation and identify likely responders ...

Continuous axillary brachial plexus block [PDF]

Canadian Anaesthetists’ Society Journal, 1983
Continuous axillary brachial plexus block was performed in 597 patients undergoing prolonged operations on the hand. The technique required placement of a 5 cm 23 gauge teflon intravenous catheter in the axillary perivascular sheath. Lidocaine 1.5 per cent or mepivicaine 1.5 per cent (20-40 ml) were used for the initial block dose.
