Pravin Dahal. Launceston General Hospital.

Thoraco-abdominal plane blocks.

Oooh starts with a menti poll!

(oh god how can I listen, tweet and menti poll .... thank god for coffee and treats and chats at the break ...)

I feel all the regional anaesthetist of Twitter here with Pravin Dahal as he extols the virtues of the erector spinae block, and his tips and tricks.

(After nudging Adam Mahoney into Trauma Twitter over the break ........ I think it's time to nudge Pravin Dahal into #RegionalAnaesthesia Twitter).

Their people are here!

Interesting commentary around very low numbers of thoracic epidurals in training now.

#ACE22TAS

Nice practical talk around logistics of ESP blocks and equipment available locally. #ACE22TAS

Oh spicy audience question:

Should we just bite the bullet and abandon the thoracic epidural entirely?

Very few being done, many alternatives without neuraxial issues, fewer contraindications, health service burden?
