Perineural Dexamethasone as a Peripheral Nerve Block Adjuvant in the Emergency Department: A Case Series.
Journal of Emergency Medicine 2021 November
BACKGROUND: Acute pain is one of the most common complaints encountered in the emergency department (ED). Single-injection peripheral nerve blocks are a safe and effective pain management tool when performed in the ED. Dexamethasone has been explored as an adjuvant to prolong duration of analgesia from peripheral nerve blocks in peri- and postoperative settings; however, data surrounding the use of dexamethasone for ED-performed nerve blocks are lacking.
CASE SERIES: In this case series we discuss our experience with adjunctive perineural dexamethasone in ED-performed regional anesthesia. Why Should an Emergency Physician be Aware of This?: Nerve blocks performed with adjuvant perineural dexamethasone may be a safe additive to provide analgesia beyond the expected half-life of local anesthetic alone. Prospective studies exploring the role of adjuvant perineural dexamethasone in ED-performed nerve blocks are needed. © 2021 Elsevier Inc.
