Impact of peripheral nerve block with low dose local anesthetics on analgesia and functional outcomes following total knee arthroplasty: a retrospective study.

open access: yesPain medicine (Malden, Mass.), 2015
OBJECTIVE While the safety and efficacy of peripheral nerve blocks for postoperative pain management has been established in several well controlled prospective trials, the local anesthetic (LA) concentration and volume used in these studies was ...

AnatomyNet: Deep Learning for Fast and Fully Automated Whole-volume Segmentation of Head and Neck Anatomy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Methods: Our deep learning model, called AnatomyNet, segments OARs from head and neck CT images in an end-to-end fashion, receiving whole-volume HaN CT images as input and generating masks of all OARs of interest in one shot. AnatomyNet is built upon the popular 3D U-net architecture, but extends it in three important ways: 1) a new encoding scheme to ...

A randomised controlled trial of pectoral nerve‐2 (PECS 2) block vs. serratus plane block for chronic pain after mastectomy

open access: yesAnaesthesia, 2019
Thoracic interfascial plane blocks are effective for post‐mastectomy acute analgesia. However, their effects on chronic pain are uncertain. We randomly allocated 80 women equally to pectoral nerve‐2 (PECS 2) block or serratus plane block.

Pectoralis Nerve Block Compared to Thoracic Paravertebral Nerve Block in the Mastectomy Patient: Evidence-Based Practice Recommendations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Patients undergoing a mastectomy are at increased risk of becoming opioid dependent. Most patients undergoing a mastectomy are diagnosed with breast cancer, and the use of opioids is known to aid in cancer metastasizing due to the suppression of the body\

Ultrasound guided distal peripheral nerve block of the upper limb: A technical review

open access: yesJournal of Anaesthesiology Clinical Pharmacology, 2015
Upper extremity surgery is commonly performed under regional anesthesia. The advent of ultrasonography has made performing upper extremity nerve blocks relatively easy with a high degree of reliability.

Effects of Bilateral Infraorbital and Infratrochlear Nerve Block on Emergence Agitation after Septorhinoplasty: A Randomized Controlled Trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Emergence agitation is common after septorhinoplasty, and postoperative pain is the main risk factor for this condition. Infraorbital and infratrochlear nerve block have been reported to facilitate pain management in patients after nasal procedures.

Adductor Canal Block versus Femoral Nerve Block for Total Knee Arthroplasty: A Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Trial

open access: yesAnesthesiology, 2014
Background:This prospective double-blinded, randomized controlled trial compared adductor canal block (ACB) with femoral nerve block (FNB) in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty. The authors hypothesized that ACB, compared with FNB, would exhibit

Serratus plane block: a novel ultrasound‐guided thoracic wall nerve block

open access: yesAnaesthesia, 2013
We present a novel ultrasound‐guided regional anaesthetic technique that may achieve complete paraesthesia of the hemithorax. This technique may be a viable alternative to current regional anaesthetic techniques such as thoracic paravertebral and central

Tumor-induced neoneurogenesis and perineural tumor growth: a mathematical approach [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
Primary tumors infrequently lead to demise of cancer patients; instead, mortality and a significant degree of morbidity result from the growth of secondary tumors in distant organs (metastasis). It is well-known that malignant tumors induce the formation of a lymphatic and a blood vascular network around themselves.

Regional Anesthesia Techniques for Total Knee Arthroplasty: Reducing Post-Operative Complications and Improving Rehabilitation and Recovery

open access: yes, 2022
Purpose Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is one of the most commonly performed procedures in the developed world, with several hundred thousand performed yearly in the United States alone.1 Majority of the patients will experience severe post-operation pain
