Peripheral Neurostimulation for Nerve Block Placement

NCT06566664 · Status: ENROLLING_BY_INVITATION · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 82

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Peripheral nerve blocks are routinely used and highly successful for intra-operative anesthesia and post-operative pain management. Nerve blocks are guided using either neurostimulation as a means to localize the right nerve or by ultrasound guidance or combining the 2 methods. The purpose of this study is to assess whether electrical stimulation improves nerve block quality, beyond its simple purpose of nerve localization.

Conditions

  • Pain Syndrome
  • Pain Management

Interventions

DEVICE

B Braun HNS 12 nerve stimulator

Nerve stimulator that is traditionally used for nerve localization during block placements.

DEVICE

B Braun HNS 12 nerve stimulator sham control

Stimulator will be placed and turned on, but the grounding electrode will not be connected to prevent nerve stimulation.
