    51% of 39 patients had good or excellent results after rotatory manipulation of the spine under anesthesia. Of patients with positive myelograms, 37% (10 of 27) had good to excellent results three years or more after manipulation. All patients received a single procedure dose. [32] Krumhansl and Nowacek

    Nerve block or regional nerve blockade is any deliberate interruption of signals traveling along a nerve, often for the purpose of pain relief. Local anesthetic nerve block (sometimes referred to as simply "nerve block") is a short-term block, usually lasting hours or days, involving the injection of an anesthetic, a corticosteroid, and other agents onto or near a nerve.

    However, a recent study using ultrasound to follow the spread of local anesthetic demonstrated an improved success rate of the block (relative to blocks done with nerve stimulator alone) even at the inferior roots of the plexus. [2] For supraclavicular block, nerve stimulation with a minimal threshold of 0.9 mA can offer a dependable block. [11]

    The infrapatellar branch of saphenous nerve is a nerve of the lower limb. [1] The saphenous nerve, located about the middle of the thigh, gives off a branch which joins the subsartorial plexus. It pierces the sartorius and fascia lata, and is distributed to the skin in front of the patella.

    A nerve decompression is a neurosurgical procedure to relieve chronic, direct pressure on a nerve to treat nerve entrapment, a pain syndrome characterized by severe chronic pain and muscle weakness. In this way a nerve decompression targets the underlying pathophysiology of the syndrome and is considered a first-line surgical treatment option ...
