Ultrasound-Guided Nerve Blocks

Overview

At Srinivasa Hospital, anaesthesiologists use this new and advanced technique to provide precise, targeted anaesthesia. This technique involves injecting local anaesthetics near specific nerves to block pain signals during and after surgical procedures. Commonly used for surgeries on limbs, ultrasound guidance helps visualise nerves and surrounding structures to enhance accuracy, effectiveness and safety, reducing the risk of complications and improving patient outcomes. Patients benefit from effective pain control, reduced need for general anaesthesia and quicker recovery times. This method is valuable for regional anaesthesia and pain management.
