This internet enduring material is part of a comprehensive lecture series providing an in-depth exploration of regional anesthesia and includes 0.75 CE Credits on Pharmacology and Effective Pain Management. The series focuses on both foundational principles and advanced clinical applications. Designed for first-time learners or anesthesia providers seeking to refine their skills, the course covers the anatomy, pharmacology, and techniques essential to effective regional anesthesia.
This enduring material highlights upper extremity approaches and familiarizes learners with upper extremity nerve innervations and common nerve blocks.
This content offers Continuing Professional Education credits. To claim the credits, the course and evaluation must be completed prior to 10/12/2028. Once your evaluation is complete, log on to https://medstar.cloud-cme.com and toggle to your Transcript to find the credits the next business day.
About the Series: Through a structured series of lectures, participants will learn the indications, contraindications, and complications of neuraxial and peripheral nerve blocks, with emphasis on ultrasound-guided techniques. Special sessions will highlight region-specific approaches (upper extremity, lower extremity, trunk, and neuraxial blocks), patient selection, and strategies for optimizing perioperative analgesia and outcomes. Participants will gain the theoretical knowledge necessary to integrate regional anesthesia safely and effectively into their clinical practice, supported by case-based discussions and current literature reviews.
Objectives:
- Discuss upper extremity nerve innervations.
- Describe the common upper extremity blocks.
- Apply our knowledge to different clinical scenarios.
