Regional anesthesia and anticoagulation

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2004
Patients receiving perioperative anticoagulation are a challenge for anesthesiologists when regional anesthesia would be a beneficial component of the anesthetic plan. Newly approved antithrombotic drugs maintain the need for updated review articles and recommendations.Due to the very low incidence of bleeding complications, guidelines are solely based

REGIONAL ANESTHESIA-A REAPPRAISAL

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1958
The anesthesiologist should be equally skilled in all anesthetic methods, both general and regional. Regional anesthesia is remarkably flexible in application. Regional blocks of the extremities do not upset the systemic water-electrolyte balance, the blood chemistry, or the functions of kidney, liver, and heart.

Complications of regional anesthesia

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2006
The use of regional anesthesia, either alone or as an adjunct to general anesthesia, is at an all-time high. Demonstrated benefits include reduced side effects, more efficient use of facilities and enhanced patient satisfaction with the improved postoperative pain relief. New advances in equipment, techniques and medications have been incorporated over

Regional anesthesia by nonanesthesiologists

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2018
As the evidence supporting the notion that regional anesthesia improves patient outcomes grows, utilization of regional anesthesia techniques has similarly increased. Best care should not be restricted by the background of care providers, however, the evidence replicating benefits of regional anesthesia when it is delivered by nonanesthesiologists is ...

REGIONAL ANESTHESIA IN PEDIATRICS

Anesthesiology Clinics of North America, 2000
The use of regional anesthetic techniques in infants and children has become increasingly accepted as standard care. The most commonly performed regional anesthetic techniques used in pediatric patients are the caudal and lumbar approaches to the epidural space, ilioinguinal/iliohypogastric, and penile nerve blockade.

Regional Anesthesia in Ophthalmology

2015
The pioneering work of Carl Koller (1884) on the anesthetic effect of cocaine in the context of ophthalmic surgery was the historical starting point for local and regional anesthesia. Local anesthesia is commonly used today for majority of ophthalmic surgical procedures.

Regional Anesthesia: An Overview

AORN Journal, 2019
AbstractAdvances in anesthesia techniques and guidance imaging have made regional anesthetics effective both for pain management and as a primary anesthesia modality for patients undergoing operative and other invasive procedures. Patients can receive regional anesthesia in most areas of the body, including the upper and lower extremities and torso. It
