Axillary Nerve Block (Ultrasound-Guided Method)

Yasuyuki Shibata, Michael J. Barrington

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

The combination of the axillary and suprascapular nerve blocks is an alternative technique of the interscalene block for providing pain control after shoulder surgery. This combination enables us to avoid diaphragmatic paralysis as a side effect of the interscalene block.
