Ultrasound-Guided Regional Anesthesia & Nerve Blocks

Training Overview

Ultrasound-Guided Regional Anesthesia & Nerve Blocks is a comprehensive, simulation-enhanced training program designed for pain medicine specialists, anesthesiologists, and related clinicians seeking advanced skills in ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia and peripheral nerve block techniques. This two-day course integrates focused theoretical modules with hands-on ultrasound simulations and case-based discussions, emphasizing accuracy, safety, and clinical effectiveness.

The program begins with core principles of ultrasound physics, sonoanatomy, needle visualization, and safety considerations in regional anesthesia. Participants review indications, contraindications, and technique selection for commonly used upper extremity, lower extremity, truncal, and fascial plane blocks in acute and chronic pain management.

Hands-on simulation sessions allow participants to perform ultrasound-guided nerve blocks on high-fidelity models under expert supervision. Attendees practice probe handling, target identification, needle advancement, local anesthetic spread assessment, and complication avoidance strategies.

Through interactive case discussions and structured feedback, participants refine decision-making and technical confidence. By the end of the program, attendees will be able to integrate ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia techniques safely and effectively into pain management practice.
