Regional Analgesia: Peripheral Nerve Blocks

• Commonly used for appendicular injuries (limb fractures, limb amputations, reductions of subluxations, and burns)
• Benefits: acute analgesia and minimization of systemic analgesic side effects, such as respiratory depression with opioids
• Risks: infection, nerve injury, surrounding structure injury (ex. pneumothorax during brachial plexus blocks), intravascular injection, local anesthetic systemic toxicity, controversial use in patients at risk of compartment syndrome
