Good morning, it’s the 5th day of #Blocktober24 ! As you settle in for (what I hope) is a relaxed weekend, I want to pose a question that MAY be somewhat controversial @Duke_Anesthesia @amit_pawa @EMARIANOMD @ASRA_Society @ESRA_Society @DrEAlbrecht @Ropivacaine @jon_bailey_anes

[Jeff Gadsden @jeffgadsden]

Hi all, and happy 6th day of #Blocktober24 ! It’s no secret that I love me a good catheter. It’s a simple way to extend your block for days and days, especially when the pain burden is prolonged... @Duke_Anesthesia @amit_pawa @GongGasGirl @EMARIANOMD @fuzzymittens @OrlandoRPN

[Jeff Gadsden @jeffgadsden]

Morning #Blocktober24 peeps! It’s Day 7 and today I want to highlight a block technique that is relatively new, but has been taking off for its utility, simplicity and effectiveness… @Duke_Anesthesia @amit_pawa @GongGasGirl @EMARIANOMD @EM_RESUS @diazolam @OrlandoRPN @DrSleep88

[Jeff Gadsden @jeffgadsden]

Gooood morning! It’s the 9th of #Blocktober24 and it’s time to discuss adductor canal block. Is there anything left to say on this? Welp, it turns out there are still some…um….unresolved discussion points...@Duke_Anesthesia @amit_pawa @GongGasGirl @EMARIANOMD @bobfunn

Huge news for anyone who uses regional anaesthesia as part of their practice. Results will be fascinating insight into modern day rate of complications from peripheral nerve blocks and neuraxial anaesthesia

[Royal College of Anaesthetists @RCoANews]

We are pleased to announce the topic for our 8th National Audit Project (NAP8) will be complications of regional anaesthesia (peripheral blocks and central neuraxial blockade) and other neurological complications of anaesthesia.

The one and only @DrPhilipPeng at #WSM2024 covering #RegionalAnaesthesia #RegionalAnesthesia for Shoulder surgery.

He starts by Quashing the Myth that the Suprascapular Block innervates 70% of the shoulder! Apparently at a max it is 40-45% !
