Current Clinical Management of Regional Analgesia and Anesthesia

Dear Colleagues,

Regional analgesia and anesthesia are techniques that block pain signals from specific areas of the body by injecting local anesthetics close to the nerves or nerve plexuses to numb a specific area. This approach is crucial in perioperative pain management, as it targets specific nerve pathways to provide effective pain relief, reducing the need for systemic analgesics and minimizing side effects. This Special Issue, "Current Clinical Management of Regional Analgesia and Anesthesia", delves into a multifaceted exploration of regional techniques and their impact on perioperative care.

The aim of this Special Issue is to highlight the latest advancements and best practices in regional analgesia and anesthesia. It offers insights into current trends, challenges, and innovations in clinical management, providing valuable information for healthcare professionals in perioperative care. This Special Issue also considers tailored approaches for pediatric patients and the elderly, ensuring that different populations receive appropriate care.
