Regional anesthesiology

Regional Anesthesia is a division within the Department of Anesthesiology, Pharmacology & Therapeutics at the University of British Columbia. Nerve blocks are performed by the majority of anesthesiologists with an application at multiple anatomic sites. These include both peripheral and deep nerve blocks and can be provided in a single injection or by an indwelling perineural catheter. Advancing the practice and awareness of regional anesthesia continues to be a primary objective.
