	Ultrasound Guided Peripheral Nerve Blockade Workshop

Activity Details
Activity Name:	Ultrasound Guided Peripheral Nerve Blockade Workshop
Needs Assessment:	The role of the anesthesiologist is to provide the patient with excellent perioperative pain control using multimodal pain techniques. One of the most important techniques which the physician needs to perfect is the performance of peripheral nerve blocks utilizing ultrasound guidance. The purpose of this workshop is to provide the physician with a comprehensive update on the latest developments in ultrasound guided regional anesthesia. This will be accomplished through didactic lectures and practice on live models, followed by extensive practice with cadavers and simulated upper and lower extremity torsos. Emphasis will be placed on scanning technique, image interpretation, needle guidance and continuous catheter insertion techniques. This 1 ½ day workshop will provide practitioners with evidence based methods and strategies to assist them in providing better treatment options for their patients. Faculty presenting and interacting with participants at this activity have been selected on the basis of their comprehensive clinical experience and academic excellence.
Course Objectives:	At the end of the program, participants should be able to: Discuss and describe ultrasound equipment operations, scanning technique and sonoanatomy Identify the tip of the block needle using conventional and echogenic needles Demonstrate successful placement of continuous nerve catheters using ultrasound guidance Demonstrate the ability to successfully perform: Ultrasound guided peripheral nerve blocks above the clavicle Ultrasound guided peripheral nerve blocks below the clavicle Ultrasound guided axillary nerve block Ultrasound guided femoral/adductor canal nerve blockade Ultrasound guided sciatic popliteal blockade Ultrasound guided pectoralis block Ultrasound guided truncal block Ultrasound guided fascia, Iliaca block
