Abstract Background and objectives: Anesthesiologists and hospitals are increasingly confronted with costs associated with the complications of Peripheral Nerve Blocks (PNB) procedures. The objective of our study was to identify the incidence of the main adverse events associated with regional anesthesi...
Abstract Pierre Robin Sequence (PRS) is a congenital condition characterized by micrognathia, glossoptosis, and cleft palate that presents with airway obstruction and developmental delay with or without other congenital anomalies. These patients' anesthesia management is challenging because of difficult ...
We present the case of a 26 year old polytrauma patient with a left intra-articular distal radial fracture, with an uncorrected late univentricular heart with severe pulmonary hypertension, subsequent Eisenmenger syndrome and supraventricular tachycardia managed with metoprolol. We find this case particu...
Abstract Background Regional anesthesia has been increasingly used. Despite its low number of complications, they are associated with relevant morbidity. This study aims to evaluate the incidence of complications after neuraxial block and peripheral nerve block. Methods A retrospective cohort study was...
OBJECTIVES: To describe the phenomenon of rebound pain associated with peripheral nerve blocks in the setting of trauma and orthopedic surgery, to know its characteristics, pathophysiological mechanisms, risk factors, preventive and treatment measures. METHODOLOGY: Non-systematic bibliographic review of ...

BACKGROUND: Regional anesthesia techniques can have adverse effects, like peripheral nerve injuries. This can affect the practitioner on the choice of techniques when offering multimodal analgesia. CASE REPORT: We present the case of an arthroscopic rotator cuff repair on a patient with no comorbidities ...
The relevance of regional anaesthesia in orthopaedic surgery cannot be overemphasized because it has aided reduction in intra-operative and post-operative pain which has always been a challenge in surgical practice. It also reduces the risk of haemorrhage and infection. Though there are complications ass...
