Advanced Techniques in Abdominal Blocks

The chapter delves into advanced techniques for abdominal blocks, starting with a focus on the external oblique intercostal block for upper abdominal incisions. The speakers emphasize practical tips for performing the block effectively, discussing landmarks, needle positioning, injection volume, and spread within the fascial plane. They also explore the rectus sheath block, sharing personal experiences, anatomical insights, volume distribution experiments, and the potential for combining a single shot with a catheter for post-operative pain relief.
