For each nerve block, the book provides detailed information about indications, patient positioning, needle selection, drug selection and volume, anatomic landmarks, approach, and technique and offers tips for maximizing effectiveness and minimizing complications. Full-color clinical photographs and line art demonstrate anatomic landmarks, patient positioning, and techniques. This edition features expanded coverage of the pharmacology of local anesthetics, a new section on pain blocks, and increased emphasis on continuous infusion blocks and pediatric peripheral nerve blocks. New chapters on upper and lower extremity innervation and facial blocks are also included. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Peripheral Nerve BlocksRecent purchase. Disappointing and mediocre compared to more recent texts by Hadzic and Boezaart. Rating:  - Easy to follow directionsThis is a very clear atlas with nice illustrations of classic blocks. It is more helpful in the Anesthesia setting than for Pain Management. There are very few blocks for the neck, none for the head. This would not help a Pain Management Specialist, but is a tremendous help in the O.R. setting.
