Nerve Block
Popliteal Sciatic Nerve Block May Increase Time to First Opioid Request in Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy
Patients with type 2 diabetes and diabetic peripheral neuropathy may have an increased time to first opioid request and reduced time to onset of sensory blockade after an ultrasound-guided popliteal sciatic nerve block compared with patients without neuropathy.
Cervical Facet Plane Block: The When, How, on Whom
The cervical facet plane block is a procedure in which a needle is inserted onto the extraarticular surface of the facet joints.
Diagnostic Genicular Nerve Block May Predict Treatment Outcomes of Cooled RFA in Chronic Knee Pain
Genicular nerve cooled radiofrequency ablation may effectively relieve chronic knee pain associated with osteoarthritis and improve function for up to 6 months.
Periarticular Injection vs Psoas Block for THA-Associated Postoperative Pain
Intraoperative periarticular local anesthetic infiltration and psoas compartment block may provide comparable analgesia after total hip arthroplasty.
Femoral Nerve Block Alone or in Combination With Sciatic Nerve Block for TKA: A Meta-Analysis

Exparel Approved for Use as Interscalene Brachial Plexus Nerve Block
Additionally, statistical significance vs placebo was also achieved in total postsurgical opioid consumption through 48 hours (P<0.0001); opioid-free subjects through 48 hours (P<0.01); and time to first opioid rescue through 48 hours (P<0.0001).
