Abstract
Regional Anesthesia for Postoperative Pain Control
Highlights
Most of the surgeries become less invasive and are increasingly being outpatient-based in time dependent manner
In a meta-analysis, it has been stated that postoperative pain control with local anesthetic infusion with long term catheter placement demonstrated a decrease in the occurrence of chronic pain [3]
Peripheral nerve blocks seem to lack systemic side effect related to sympathetic blockade and lesser incidence of minor complications including urinary retention when compared with central neuraxial blocks or catheter applications
Summary
Most of the surgeries become less invasive and are increasingly being outpatient-based in time dependent manner. Peripheral nerve blocks seem to lack systemic side effect related to sympathetic blockade and lesser incidence of minor complications including urinary retention when compared with central neuraxial blocks or catheter applications.
