“…Die präklinische Anwendung von Blockaden der oberen Extremität (Plexus brachialis) sind in prospektiven Studien kaum untersucht, hierzu liegen aktuell hauptsächlich retrospektive Daten und Fallberichte vor [8,9]. Für die Anwendung interskalenärer Plexusblockaden als Analgesieverfahren in Notaufnahmen konnten dagegen bereits deutliche Vorteile zur Reposition von Schulterluxationen im Vergleich mit Kurznarkosen gezeigt werden [10,11].…”

“…The interscalene brachial plexus block provides good coverage to the shoulder region and is commonly used in adult EDs, 13 mostly for shoulder dislocations. In children, shoulder dislocations are far less common than more distal upper extremity injuries 14 .…”

Regional anesthesia has gained prevalence over recent years in the emergency department setting, mainly in adults. Various frameworks have been suggested as toolkits encompassing the common procedures found in the adult setting. To date, no such framework exists for the pediatric emergency setting. Objective We describe a case series of regional nerve blocks, which comprise an adapted framework for the pediatric emergency setting and were performed by pediatric emergency medicine physicians. Methods A case series of 8 different ultrasound-guided nerve blocks and 1 anatomical block, performed in 11 pediatric patients, aged 7 weeks to 17 years. Results All blocks resulted in adequate analgesia. No procedural complications were observed. Conclusion We describe a set of nerve blocks performed by emergency medicine physicians in the pediatric population in an ED setting. In suitable settings, this is a safe and effective tool for procedural analgesia or for pain management. In such cases, performing an ultrasound-guided nerve block in the ED is a viable alternative for repeated doses of opiates, deep procedural sedation, or the operating theater. We propose this set of regional anesthesia procedures as a pediatric-adapted toolkit for the emergency physician to be performed in children in the ED setting. Adopting this set of procedures ensures better and safer care for children and provides a training framework for pediatric ED physicians.

“…There are mixed results from various studies that compare interscalene block versus intravenous sedation for the reduction of shoulder dislocations. In a recent publication, the anesthesia time and reduction time was shorter for the intravenous sedation group although the time to hospital discharge was reduced for the interscalene group, with a higher satisfaction level, while pain scores were similar between groups [8].…”

Purpose of review Moderate to severe pain is common and remains a significant problem in the emergency department and regional anesthesia provides optimal and safe pain relief. This review aims to discuss the benefits, indications of the most common ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia techniques that can be provided by clinicians in the emergency department as part of multimodal analgesia. We will also comment on the education and training for effective and safe ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia in the emergency department. Recent findings The emergence of multiple new fascial plane blocks that provide easier to learn alternatives, yet effective analgesia for specific patient groups can now safely be taught and utilized in the emergency department. Summary Emergency physicians are perfectly placed to utilize the advantages of ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia. Various techniques can now be employed to cover most of the painful injuries presenting to the emergency department, thus modifying the morbidity and outcomes of emergency patients. Some of the new techniques require minimal training, provide safe and effective pain relief with low risk of complications. Ultrasound-guided regional anesthetic techniques should form an integral part of the curriculum of emergency department physicians.
