Purpose of review
To review the evidence recently published involving the use of continuous peripheral nerve blocks (cPNBs) in the ambulatory setting.Recent findings
New evidence exists involving the risks and benefits of cPNB in ambulatory patient populations such as pediatric ambulatory and postmastectomy patients. In addition, new related equipment is now available to facilitate ambulatory cPNB.Summary
Recent advancements in equipment for cPNB facilitate the usage in the ambulatory setting. Research-supported ambulatory cPNB indications have expanded to include pediatric subpopulations and major breast surgery, while further evidence mounts for its efficacy in patient populations with previously demonstrated benefits, such as foot, ankle and shoulder surgery.Many UC-authored scholarly publications are freely available on this site because of the UC's open access policies.
