Regional anesthesia in pediatrics - Non-systematic literature review
Keywords:
Anesthesia conduction, Pediatrics ultrasonography, Neuromuscular blocking agents, Anesthetics local
Abstract
Introduction: The use of pediatric regional anesthesia has grown to become the standard of care, because of its effective pain control, improved safety profile of the local anesthetic agents, in addition to the introduction of ultrasound.
Objective: To perform a non-systematic review of pediatric regional anesthesia.
Methods and materials: A search was conducted on the available scientific evidence in databases (Pubmed/Medline, ScienceDirect, OVID, SciELO), for a non-systematic review.
Conclusions: The use of pediatric regional anesthesia has increased due to its notable effect on pain management and furthermore as a result of the incremented use of ultrasound technology.
