METHOD OF THERAPEUTIC BLOCK OF SUPERIOR GLUTEAL NERVE

摘要

FIELD: medicine.;SUBSTANCE: in conditions requiring block of a superior gluteal nerve, a patient is horizontally pronated with his feet adducted. A line marked in the middle is drawn from behind through a lower edge of an ischial bone and an upper edge of a wing of ilium. A line transversal to a longitudinal axis of a body is drawn through the mark and extended on a gluteal skin. Thereafter, from one side through a projection of a centre of the lower edge of the ischial bone and the upper edge of the wing of ilium, a second line is drawn, and its intersection with the line drawn transversally to the longitudinal axis of the body on skin is dotted to trace a needle therethrough into tissues in a frontal plane perpendicularly to a sagittal plane. Thereafter, a medicinal solution containing 60 ml of 0.25 % novocaine and 10 mg of vitamin B12 is injected with 0.2 mg of dexamethasone added per each 1 ml of the administered solution.;EFFECT: higher efficacy of the block of the superior gluteal nerve due to more precise drug delivery thereto.;2 cl, 2 dwg, 1 ex
