Description
Here's a highly illustrated practical guide with easy to follow descriptions of pain injection techniques. It will give special advice
on how to achieve a successful block and how to avoid and manage potential problems. The techniques will be described in a systematic
and easy to use way. Each description of the injection will be accompanied by figures demonstrating the surface anatomy, patient position,
needle puncture site and movement of the needle in relation to anatomyh. Where necessary further figures will be used to show dye injections
and successful blocks.
Audience
Anesthesiologists and Anesthesia Residents, Pain Clinics, Pain Medicine Physicians, Nurse Anesthetists, Primary Care Physicians, Oncologists, Health Science Libraries
