Review of ultrasound-guided peripheral nerve stimulation
Techniques in Regional Anesthesia and Pain Management, 09/23/09
Huntoon MA et al. – Review of two anatomical feasibility studies, the original cases series, anatomy texts, and other literature suggest that the potential application of US–guided placement of peripheral nerve stimulation systems is feasible. Application of these techniques will, however, require a significant concentrated experience in US evaluation, cross–sectional anatomy, and nerve block technique before attempting. There is minimal literature at present to suggest that peripheral nerve stimulation systems should be placed using US or other minimally invasive image–guided techniques. As an emerging technique, significant further research will be required to guide future use.
