Part of the Online Lecture Series on Ultrasound-Guided Regional Anesthetic Techniques for Small Animals

CONTENT DESCRIPTION

This session will review the important topics of pain physiology, types of pain and available methods of its treatment. We will review the current literature that compares locoregional and systemic analgesic techniques and highlight the benefits of performing effective intraoperative anti-nociceptive techniques. We will introduce you to the idea of using ultrasound to perform locoregional anesthesia and discuss how to optimize use of ultrasound for this purpose. Following this session, you will understand how locoregional techniques have evolved over the past 30 years, from nerve blocks that are performed “blindly”, to techniques that can only be performed successfully using ultrasound. At the end of this session, you will have the solid foundation in the use of ultrasound that will be necessary for you to benefit from later sessions in this webinar series.
