Abstract: BACKGROUND Efforts to prolong interscalene block (ISB) analgesia include the use of local anaesthetic adjuvants such as dexamethasone. Previous work showing prolonged block duration suggests that both perineural and intravenous (i.v.) routes can both prolong… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/anae.14400
Abstract: The volume‐duration relationship using low concentrations of ropivacaine for peripheral nerve blocks is unknown, even though low concentrations of ropivacaine are increasingly used clinically. We investigated the effect of ropivacaine 0.2% on common peroneal nerve… read more here.
