Regional anaesthesia research priorities: a Regional Anaesthesia <span>UK</span> ( <span>RA</span> ‐ <span>UK</span> ) priority setting partnership involving patients, carers and healthcare professionals Open
Summary Introduction Regional anaesthesia provides important clinical benefits to patients but is underutilised. A barrier to widespread adoption may be the focus of regional anaesthesia research on novel techniques rather than evaluating …

Prospective randomized evaluation of the sustained impact of assistive artificial intelligence on anesthetists’ ultrasound scanning for regional anesthesia Open
Objectives Ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia (UGRA) relies on acquiring and interpreting an appropriate view of sonoanatomy. Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to aid this by applying a color overlay to key sonoanatomical s…

Regional anaesthesia training in the UK – a national survey Open
Our results confirm the importance of clinical experience and access to training in regional anaesthesia, and support the introduction of departmental regional anaesthesia leads to improve equity and quality in training opportunities.

Recommendations for anatomical structures to identify on ultrasound for the performance of intermediate and advanced blocks in ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia Open
Recent recommendations describe a set of core anatomical structures to identify on ultrasound for the performance of basic blocks in ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia (UGRA). This project aimed to generate consensus recommendations for…

Multi‐site nerve block catheters for postoperative analgesia in extended scapulectomy and free‐flap reconstruction Open
Summary Scapulectomy is performed as a limb‐sparing procedure in the management of tumours of the proximal humerus and shoulder girdle. Analgesic outcomes following this procedure are poorly documented in the literature. In our case, satis…

Sacral plexus catheter analgesia in a patient with traumatic sacral fractures and Tarlov cysts Open
Summary We report the use of a sacral plexus catheter for continuous local anaesthetic infusion in a patient with a unilateral sacral ala fracture following a fall from a horse. Although sacral plexus blockade has been well described for l…

Safety, complications and clinical outcome after ultrasound‐guided paravertebral catheter insertion for rib fracture analgesia: a single‐centre retrospective observational study Open
Summary Rib fractures are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Ultrasound‐guided thoracic paravertebral catheter insertion has been described for the management of pain secondary to rib fractures. We conducted a retrospecti…

Injectate spread in erector spinae plane block Open
Yang et al. described an interesting cadaveric study showing the differences and similarities in anatomical spread of injectate for two types of paraspinal block: retrolaminar and erector spinae plane (ESP) 1. Costache et al. describe thes…
