Regionalanästhesie

Peripheral regional anesthesia can provide anatomically selective blocks which affect the patients vital functions significantly less than general or even neuraxial anesthesia. Peripheral regional anesthesia is safer and less prone to complications. It can be used to provide intraoperative anesthesia, either by itself or in combination with general or spinal anesthesia, as well as postoperative continuous pain therapy.

The patients subsequent
rehabilitation is rendered faster and more cost effective. The techniques, however, are sophisticated and require profound knowledge of anatomy. The Atlas of Peripheral Regional Anesthesia: Anatomy and Techniques, Third Edition is a comprehensively revised reference that provides readers with essential anatomical knowledge along with step-by-step instructions
on how to perform even the most complex regional anesthesia procedures with particular focus on ultrasound-guided techniques. This new edition is enhanced with over 700 full-color illustrations as well as an extensive selection of videos on Thiemes MediaCenter.

Key Features of the Third Edition:
- More than 250 new and updated figures, anatomical illustrations, and cadaver
dissection photos which demonstrate the techniques
- New section describing the general aspects of ultrasound imaging in performing
peripheral nerve blocks
- New section on pediatric regional anesthesia
- Online access to more than 250 video films of the techniques

This new edition is an invaluable resource for all anesthesiologists, orthopedists, and pain management physicians involved in the administration of regional anesthesia.
