4 Regional anaesthesia always works if you put the right amount of the right stuff in the right place

5 Learning Objectives 40 min to refresh your knowledge in: Physiology and pathophysiology Pharmacology Physics and equipment Applied anatomy and selected blocks

6 Learning Objectives 40 min to refresh your knowledge in: Physiology and pathophysiology Pharmacology Physics and equipment Applied anatomy and selected blocks

7 Regional anaesthesia intends to block generation and conduction of the action potential in the central and peripheral nervous system Key concepts to understand How this works at cellular level - Action potential of the nerve cell Some of the molecular mechanisms behind it Na + and K + voltage gated channels Propagation of action potential

15 Mechanisms of nerve injury Traumatic (mechanical and injection) Vascular (ischaemic) Chemical (Neurotoxic) Inflammatory

16 Etiology of Peripheral nerve injury Anaesthetic factors Type of anaesthetic Intraneural injection Nerve structure Needle type Surgical factors Surgical positioning Tourniquet Postsurgical inflammatory neuropathy Patient factors Preoperative neural compromise Lumbar spinal canal stenosis

17 Have we made peripheral nerve blocks safer by using nerve localisation techniques or monitors?

28 Sound is a longitudinal wave that travels in a straight line and requires a medium to go through Frequency exceeding the upper limit of human hearing, which is 20,000 Hz or 20 khz Medical Ultrasound 2MHz to 16MHz Amplitude

29 Image produced by passing an electrical current through a piezoelectrical crystal Low Frequency 3 MHz High Frequency 10 MHz

30 Frequency vs resolution Broadband vs narrowband US waves interaction with tissues Reflection: scattering vs specular Refraction Transmission Attenuation
