so is this to block pain locally in cases of injury/ surgery?

@regionalanesthesiology 10 ай бұрын

Yes, we typically do this for surgical cases (bunionectomy, toe amputations, etc) but it is also good for numbing the foot when you need to irrigate, debride or suture a wound in the emergency department. Thanks for watching!! 😊

Whats that nerve like looking structure in the EDL ?

That's an intramuscular tendon...if you track it proximally, you'll see it disappears and blends in with the muscle. The superficial peroneal nerve won't do that--it will maintain it's integrity. Also, it will pop through the crural (deep) fascia of the leg and become superficial closer to the ankle, which gives you another clue that that's what you're identifying. Thanks for watching!
