SUPERFICIAL RADIAL NERVE Block - a "How-To" Guide (for Motor-Sparing Wrist Blocks)

[@shubadadugani6916]

Thank you very much for this informative video. If you were to do radial artery cannulation at the wrist, would you consider subcutaneous infiltration to target these nerves? Usually the practice is to raise a wheal with lignocaine at the point of needle insertion.

LA for radial artery cannulation - yes, just a small little wheal at the insertion point is the best way to do this. Not this block. What this video should make you aware of (as it did for me) is the potential risk of injury to the SRN if you are not in line with the artery; nevertheless I think it's rare as it's relatively far away from the artery.

Hello Sir, I have a superficial radial surgery recently in my hand. Any potential problem or anything I should be worried about?
