US-guided Popliteal Sciatic Nerve Block 

Additional videos of actual popliteal blocks are at ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1OF_qimJ4so.html and ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eYPautUbD5w.html

The best video I’ve found showing the in plane value of plane (!) views. Thanks Dr. Chin.

Fascinating! I just had this exact block done yesterday. Very effective as I’m 18 hours post-op and still no need to pain meds.

Best video I've seen on the popliteal block with clear rationale and explanations!

Fantastic video. Your descriptions, pearls, and techniques are exceptional.

It is owner of anesthesia to have excellent teacher like YOU ....Allah bless you

Excellent video. Nice clinical pearls throughout.

High quality! Thank you

one of the best vedio i ever have seen

Superb presentation!

awesome video thank you

thank you very much

Superb!

Thanks 🙏🏻🙏🏻

sir please upload videos of sciatic,femoral,obturator nerve blocks usg guided..ur teachings are excellent

Great description! is the pendulum maneuver your technique?

Thanks ❤️💜💜🌿

Thanks

Thank you for the detailed and excellent video. Can i ask a question please? Is it possible for a patient to have persistent sensory loss in all toes after a popliteal sciatic nerve block ? Usg + pns was used. Regained full motor action. He'd undergone peripheral angioplasty in the same limb a day earlier. Elderly gentleman with PVD. The surgery done was debridement over the foot dorsum. We dont have the device to check injection pressure, however there was no paraesthesia at any time and we also went down to 0.4 mA when we got a motor response. Thanking in anticipation

Thanks sir

Thank you sir for this excellent illustration video. My question is about the wireless US probe, is it possible to achieve these blocks with such probe or it should be a high quality device?

Thanks so much for this, extremely informative! Question: for OOP, how far distal from the probe do you place the needle, and at what angle do you approach the nerve(s)? Did one of them today that I got to work well, but I think I had the needle too close to the probe at the start which limited my ability to move the needle somewhat. Looks like you’re about an inch or so distal from the probe as you insert the needle, with an angle about 45 degrees to the probe to target nerves and US beam?

Regarding the use of surgical thigh tourniquet, would the addition of femoral and obturator nerve block be adequate? (Please help me understand why would tourniquet pain require spinal or GA)

Can you do the popliteal nerve block without locating the popliteal artery as the landmark? I was having difficulty finding the popliteal artery with the patient in the lateral position. My colleague just locate the area where the "nerve split" into two branches. These was no vascular pulsation on ECHO. He just injected. Is this a correct approach?

Superficial is anterior to the artery bud not posterior

Volume of video is very low😳
