Description
Resolving to expedite the recovery process, this reference describes a comprehensive multimodal approach to intraoperative regional anesthesia and postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing major lower extremity orthopedic surgery-spanning the entire selection of regional anesthesia equipment, strategies in pain management, and practical treatment guidelines for the management of inpatient and ambulatory peripheral nerve catheters.
The authors' systematic approach to regional anesthesia and analgesia in patients undergoing total joint replacement has been recognized for its scientific and educational value by the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons and the American Society of Anesthesiologists
This guide helps readers by:
offering prudent, practical management guidelines for optimal medical care
describing needle redirection cues for each block
illustrating anatomical landmarks for selecting the needle insertion site
supplying detailed medical illustrations of proper positioning for the patient and proceduralist
