This study aims to determine temperature effect on nerve conduction block induced by high-frequency (kHz) biphasic stimulation (HFBS). ⋯ Temperature has an important influence on HFBS-induced nerve block. The blocking mechanisms underlying acute and poststimulation nerve blocks are likely to be very different.

To reveal the possible mechanisms underlying poststimulation block induced by high-frequency biphasic stimulation (HFBS). ⋯ This study reveals two possible ionic mechanisms underlying post-HFBS block of axonal conduction. Understanding these mechanisms is important for improving clinical applications of HFBS block and for developing new nerve block methods employing HFBS.

Randomized Controlled TrialModified thoracoabdominal nerve block through perichondrial approach (M-TAPA) vs local infiltration for pain management after laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery: a randomized study.
Modified thoracoabdominal nerves block through perichondrial approach (M-TAPA) targets thoracoabdominal nerves. Our primary aim was to compare M-TAPA vs local infiltration on pain management in patients underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) surgery. ⋯ M-TAPA provides superior analgesia compared to LI in patients undergoing LC.

Case ReportsUltrasound-Guided Paravenous Saphenous Nerve Block for Lower Extremity Abscess Incision and Drainage in a Male Adolescent.
The use of ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia is growing as a modality for analgesia provision within the pediatric emergency department. We present a case in which a paravenous saphenous nerve block was used for anesthesia during incision and drainage of a lower extremity abscess. We further review the technique and literature concerning this straightforward and effective procedure.
