Happy 1st of #Blocktober to all you blockstars out there!! It's SOOO great to be back and looking forward to all the fun interaction and engagement with the RA community!!! Check out today's block and more in the 🧵 below #DukeRAP @Duke_Anesthesia @ASRA_Society @ESRA_Society

Ok, we're going to start things off with an ol' classic--the axillary brachial plexus block. Who loves them some axillary scanning?! We do!! Check out our video here: #DukeRAP #Blocktober22

Here's our curated reading list for axillary brachial plexus block:

pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30725886/

pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31797347/

But wait, there's more! Ever find you've done a great axillary BPB, but the surgeon has to cut up in the axilla? Been there. That's why you need a good approach to the intercostobrachial & med brachial cutaneous nerve. Check out this vid: #blocktober22

And here's our curated reading list for ICBN and MCBN:

It's Day 2 of #Blocktober22 ! Hope you're having a relaxing Sunday! Check out today's 🧵 and join in with your thoughts and experiences using today's block! 👇 👇 #DukeRAP @Duke_Anesthesia @ASRA_Society @ESRA_Society @AoraIndia @LasraAnestesia @ASALifeline @AFSRA10

Today we'll be talking about ultrasound guided intercostal nerve blocks--an excellent technique for all kinds of chest (& abdominal) indications. Broken ribs? this is a quick, easy and effective technique to have at your disposal: #DukeRAP #Blocktober22

It's the 21st day of #Blocktober ! Today we discuss ways to stay out of trouble--and more specifically, out of the nerve. Needle-nerve contact is known to cause inflammation and injury, and we can use several monitors to prevent getting too close. #DukeRAP #RegionalAnesthesia

It's the 15th day of #blocktober! Today we're discussing ultrasound guided blocks of the nerves in the distal upper extremity: median, ulnar and radial. Great for hand surgery and also as a rescue block. What are you using these for? Enjoy! #DukeRAP #RegionalAnesthesia #FOAMEd

Good morning #blocktober friends! Today we'll discuss the serratus plane block, another fascial plane block of the chest wall that we primarily use for rib fractures, but also has utility for a variety of other chest wall procedures. #DukeRAP #RegionalAnesthesia #FOAMEd
