PENG, PNS, Cryoablation for Acute and Chronic Hip Pain 02/08/2024

PENG, PNS, Cryoablation for Acute and Chronic Hip Pain In this episode, Garden City (long island) based Pain Physician, Dr. David Rosenblum explores Peripheral Nerve Stimulation, Biologics and Ablations for hip pain. He reviews a case report of a 67-year-old female with a history of a mechanical fall causing injury to her lumbar spine and pelvis resulting in hip and pelvic pain is presented. The patient had hypertrophic non-union of the right iliac wing fracture and displacement of the pubic symphysis and right sacroiliac joint. Medications were not effectively managing her pain, so she sought treatment at a pain management clinic. The patient underwent diagnostic obturator and femoral articular nerve branch injections, as well as a middle cluneal nerve steroid injection, all guided by fluoroscopy and ultrasound. She experienced improvement in her pain following these procedures. Subsequently, she had a peripheral nerve stimulator (PNS) trial and underwent implantation of leads targeting the right middle cluneal nerve and right obturator and femoral articular nerve branches. The patient reported significant relief in both the posterior and anterior distribution of her pain. Her activities of daily living improved, and she was able to sleep without pain after the PNS implantation. The successful use of combined fluoroscopy and ultrasound in targeting the specific nerves and replicating the patient's pain distribution before permanent PNS implantation is highlighted in this case. Additionally, the show notes mention an events calendar located at this link: .

Journal Club- Cerebrospinal Fluid and Glymphatic Circulation in Human Nerves 01/24/2024

Journal Club- Cerebrospinal Fluid and Glymphatic Circulation in Human Nerves Painexam Podcast Show Notes: Journal Club on "Ventricular Infusion and Nanoprobes Identify Cerebrospinal Fluid and Glymphatic Circulation in Human Nerves" Special Thanks to Robert Stall, MD Introduction: Welcome to another episode of the Painexam Podcast! In today's journal club edition, we delve into a fascinating study by Dr. Joel E. Pessa on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulation in human nerves. Background: The study addresses the growing evidence of CSF circulation in human nerves and its implications in various conditions encountered by plastic surgeons. Conditions such as nerve transection, stretch injuries, and peripheral neuropathy may be related to dysregulation of the CSF system. Methods: Dr. Pessa and his team developed the ventricular infusion technique using buffered saline in 2017. The technique was applied to eight fresh cadavers before dissecting the median nerve. Fluorescent imaging and nanoprobe injections were combined with ventricular infusion in selected specimens. Results: The eight cadaver specimens (six female, two male) aged 46–97 underwent successful ventricular infusion. Ventricular cannulation was performed successfully using specific coordinates. Results suggest that CSF flows in neural sheaths, including pia meninges, epineurial channels, perineurium, and myelin sheaths (neurolemma). Conclusions: Ventricular infusion and nanoprobes effectively identify CSF flow in neural sheaths of human nerves. CSF flow in nerves is described as an open circulatory system occurring via channels, intracellular flow, and cell-to-cell transport associated with glial cells. Neural sheaths, including neurolemma, may play a role in glucose and solute transport to axons. The techniques showcased in this study can be utilized in anatomic dissection and live animal models and have been extended to the central nervous system to identify direct ventricle-to-pia meninges CSF pathways. Significance: This study opens new avenues for understanding the intricate mechanisms of CSF circulation in neural tissues. Plastic surgeons and researchers can benefit from these techniques in studying and addressing conditions related to CSF dysregulation in nerves. The findings have implications not only for nerve-related conditions but also for broader applications in the central nervous system. Closing: Thank you for joining us on this insightful journey through Dr. Joel E. Pessa's study.

The Cervical Plexus 08/12/2023

The Cervical Plexus Garden City and Brooklyn Pain Physician, world renown for his work on the PainExam Podcast, PainExam Pain Management and , discusses: a case of paresthesia in the upper neck realted to C3 and C4 stenosis and considers a selective nerve root block while wondering if a deep cervical plexus block would suffice. Rational : Desire to avoid epidural due to proximity to spinal cord Ultrasound approach of cervial plexus may anesthetize C3 and C4 roots and may be sufficient to do with ultrasound alone Unfortunately, no data found to support this particular situation, however, it may be safe and effective if performed properly.

Caution: Phrenic Nerve Anatomy The cervical plexus is a complex network of nerves located in the neck region, originating from the anterior rami (branches) of the cervical spinal nerves, specifically those stemming from the upper cervical segments (C1 to C4). This intricate network serves to provide sensory and motor innervation to various structures within the neck and surrounding areas. The cervical plexus is positioned within a groove between the longus capitis and the middle scalene muscles in the neck. It is organized into different nerve loops and branches that radiate outwards to supply various regions. The cervical plexus can be divided into deep and superficial components, each with distinct functions and innervation patterns. Cervical Plexus: The plexus involves nerve loops and branches that provide both sensory and motor functions. The superficial sensory branches originating from adjacent anterior spinal nerves (C2 to C4) are responsible for providing sensation to specific areas of the skin, particularly in the head, neck, and shoulder regions. These sensory branches include the lesser occipital nerve (C2, C3), great auricular nerve (C2, C3), transverse cervical nerve (C2, C3), and supraclavicular nerves (C3, C4). These nerves typically run posteriorly and then penetrate the prevertebral fascia before reaching the skin and superficial structures.

Blocks for Head, Neck, and Spinal Surgeries Neurosurgery and Regional Anesthesia Claim CME Credit: The CE experience for this Podcast is powered by CMEfy - click here to reflect and earn credits: In this episode, we will explore the various regional anesthesia techniques used in neurosurgery, specifically focusing on blocks for head, neck, and spinal surgeries. Segment 1: Blocks used in Head and Neck Surgeries Scalp Block: The scalp block involves blocking six nerves that provide sensory innervation to the scalp. It is performed by subcutaneous infiltration of local anesthetics (such as bupivacaine, ropivacaine, or levobupivacaine) for each nerve. Ultrasound guidance has improved the precision of block administration. The main indication for a scalp block is awake craniotomy, but it is also used in other procedures like deep brain stimulation and cranioplasty surgery. Scalp block offers advantages such as accurate neurological evaluation, pre-emptive analgesia, and hemodynamic stability during surgery. It also reduces postoperative pain, the need for rescue analgesics, and pain scores in the early postoperative period. Infraorbital Block (IOB): The infraorbital nerve block targets the infraorbital nerve, which supplies the skin and mucous membrane of the upper lip, lower eyelid, and cheek. The IOB can be performed using the classical landmark technique or ultrasound guidance. Ultrasound guidance provides real-time visualization and accurate needle placement. IOB combined with general anesthesia is beneficial for postoperative pain relief in procedures like endoscopic trans-nasal trans-sphenoidal (TNTS) approach for pituitary tumor excision. Other regional techniques like sphenopalatine ganglion block and maxillary nerve blocks have also been attempted for transsphenoidal surgeries. Trigeminal Nerve Block: Trigeminal nerve block is used for patients unresponsive to medical management of trigeminal neuralgia. Traditionally performed using the paresthesia technique, ultrasound guidance allows real-time visualization and confirmation of local anesthetic spread. Ultrasound guidance helps locate the Gasserian ganglion and visualize the trigeminal ganglion, providing a safe and radiation-free procedure for pain relief. Segment 2: Blocks used for Spinal Surgeries Cervical Plexus Block (CPB): CPB is commonly used in carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and cervical spine surgery. Different levels of CPB can be performed depending on the depth of injection. Superficial CPB involves injecting local anesthetic superficially into the deep cervical fascia. Deep CPB requires depositing local anesthetic deep to the prevertebral fascia. CPB helps in monitoring cerebral blood flow during CEA and provides postoperative pain relief. Ultrasound guidance can be used for superficial CPB, ensuring accurate needle placement and local anesthetic spread. Erector Spinae Block (ESB): ESB is used for pain control in spinal surgeries. It involves depositing local anesthetic in the plane between the erector spinae muscle and the transverse process. ESB provides effective postoperative analgesia and reduces opioid consumption. Regional anesthesia techniques play a crucial role in neurosurgery, providing effective pain relief and improving patient outcomes. Blocks like scalp block, infraorbital block, trigeminal nerve block, cervical plexus block, and erector spinae block offer numerous advantages in specific procedures. Ultrasound guidance has enhanced the precision and safety of block administration. These techniques contribute to improved surgical outcomes and patient satisfaction in neurosurgical procedures.

Pediatric Anesthesia Considerations in the Orthopedic Patient 05/17/2023

Pediatric Anesthesia Considerations in the Orthopedic Patient Introduction: Providing anesthesia for pediatric orthopedic patients poses unique challenges for anesthesiologists. The approach must consider the psychological development of the child and the prevalence of respiratory infections. Pain management, management of concomitant diseases, and risk reduction for adverse events are crucial aspects of anesthetic care. This blog post will review the perioperative concerns specific to pediatric orthopedic procedures, discuss pain control methods used, and highlight anesthetic considerations for certain surgeries. Listen to Audio via a Advanced Board Review Course or stay updated via our newsletter below Select Pediatric Perioperative Concerns: Upper Respiratory Tract Infections (URI): Pediatric patients presenting for orthopedic surgery with current or recent URIs pose a challenge for anesthesiologists and surgeons. Children commonly experience URIs with symptoms like a runny nose, cough, and fever. While the viral infection may reside in the nasopharynx, the lower respiratory tract remains sensitive for up to 6 weeks after URI symptoms have resolved. This increased sensitivity puts patients at risk for perioperative complications like laryngospasm, bronchospasm, and oxygen desaturation. Delaying surgery for 6 weeks after URI resolution is often impractical, as another URI is likely to occur. For elective surgery, severe symptoms and complications warrant postponing surgery, but clear nasal discharge in an otherwise healthy patient may proceed with elective surgery. Clinical decision-making becomes challenging for cases falling between these extremes. Factors such as patient age, comorbidities, prior cancellations, surgery complexity, and urgency are considered when deciding whether to postpone surgery. If elective surgery is delayed, most clinicians would wait 2 to 4 weeks after URI symptom resolution. Anxiety in the Pediatric Patient: Pediatric patients undergoing orthopedic surgery often experience varying levels of anxiety and distress. Preoperative stressors can include unfamiliar environments, procedures, hunger, fear of pain, and separation from parents. Certain risk factors contribute to preoperative anxiety, such as ages 1 to 5 years, shy temperament, prior negative medical experiences, high cognitive levels, and parental anxiety. Unaddressed anxiety can lead to postoperative behavioral changes, including generalized anxiety, separation anxiety, aggression, and nighttime crying. It can also result in higher pain scores and increased pain medication requirements after surgery. Strategies to mitigate preoperative anxiety include presurgical preparation programs involving site visits, videos, books, and child-life interventions. Allowing parental presence during anesthesia induction can help alleviate separation anxiety. Pharmacologic interventions like oral midazolam can improve compliance and reduce negative behavioral changes in the short term. Anesthetic Management for Orthopedic Procedures: Anesthetic Considerations for Select Pediatric Orthopedic Surgeries: Scoliosis Surgery: Anesthetic concerns during scoliosis surgery include optimizing neuromonitoring signals, managing blood loss, preventing positioning-related injuries, and minimizing the risk of postoperative visual loss. Pain Management: Pain control for pediatric orthopedic patients involves a multimodal pharmacologic approach to minimize opioid requirements. This approach includes non-opioid analgesics, local anesthetics, and regional anesthesia techniques. Regional anesthesia, such as peripheral nerve blocks and caudal anesthesia, is particularly valuable for postoperative pain control. Recent studies have confirmed the safety of regional anesthesia in the pediatric population. Pediatric orthopedic surgeries present unique challenges for anesthesiologists. Effective management of preoperative anxiety, careful consideration of upper respiratory tract infections, and appropriate pain control strategies are essential for successful outcomes. Anesthesiologists must tailor their approach to the specific needs of pediatric patients undergoing orthopedic procedures to ensure their safety and well-being. Reference Wu JP.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Carpal Tunnel Syndrome The CE experience for this Podcast is powered by CMEfy - click here to reflect and earn credits: Diagnosis, Pathophysiology, Clinical Findings and Management of the Carpal Tunnel Syndrome In this episode, we will be discussing Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, a common condition that affects millions of people worldwide. But before we dive into the topic, we want to tell you about a great opportunity to advance your medical knowledge through the NRAP Academy CME courses offered on our website. Discussion on Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is a condition that occurs when the median nerve, which runs from the forearm to the hand, becomes compressed or squeezed at the wrist. This compression can lead to pain, numbness, and tingling in the hand and arm, which can be debilitating. There are many causes of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, including repetitive hand movements, wrist injuries, pregnancy, and medical conditions such as diabetes and thyroid disorders. Treatment options for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome range from non-invasive approaches like rest, ice, and wrist splints to more invasive treatments like surgery. It's important to diagnose and treat Carpal Tunnel Syndrome early to prevent long-term damage to the median nerve. A proper diagnosis can be made through a physical exam and imaging tests like an electromyography (EMG) or nerve conduction study (NCS).
