1. Anesthetic Technique for Facial Plane Blocks is crucial for nerve blocks, involving careful needle placement in the correct plane to administer anesthetic effectively.
2. Ulnar Nerve Block Technique requires locating the ulnar artery as a landmark to find the ulnar nerve, ensuring safe distance for needle insertion.
3. Identifying Ulnar Artery and Nerve is key in understanding the relationship between arteries and nerves in the forearm, with variations highlighted in a publication by Matt Oldman.
4. Discussion on Identifying Veins and Nerves for Distal Radius Fractures emphasizes using anatomical landmarks and nerve tracing techniques to determine nerve locations for fractures, and preferring peripheral blocks over brachial plexus blocks based on Hilton's law.
