Summary:[...]it was rescheduled under nerve stimulator-guided LPB and SPB. Advantages of regional anaesthesia in remote locations include no need for airway intervention and the patient can be shifted out of the MRI suite immediately after the scan, unlike general anaesthesia, no adverse effects like nausea, vomiting, residual paralysis and sore throat. [...]peripheral nerve blocks could be considered as a reliable option when feasible for the painful limb conditions in patients undergoing MRI.
