Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

We assessed the visibility of peripheral nerves while ultrasound guided blockades with a novel scoring system to evaluate differences in visibility of different nerves.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

We assessed the visibility of peripheral nerves while ultrasound guided blockades with a novel scoring system to evaluate differences in visibility of different nerves.

VIS(visibility) 1 easy identification and instant visualisation of all structures VIS 2 identification and visualisation of all structures after some corrections VIS 3 identification and visualisation of structures only unsure VIS 4 identification and visualisation of all structures impossible VIS 5 no structures seen. We amended a sub-project in which assessed the visibility in protective nerve stimulated nerve blocks in 46 patients.
