What type of block is used for eyelid surgery to block motor function only?

Peterson block

What is the main purpose of a retrobulbar block?

To preserve the structural aspects of the orbit during eye surgery

What type of block can be used for teat surgery to avoid using adrenaline directly in the region?

Caudal epidural block

Which type of local block is mainly used for fixing LDA and caesarean in farm animals?

Paravertebral anaesthesia

What is the disadvantage of using a line block for flank surgery in farm animals?

All of the above

Which nerves are targeted in an inverted L block for flank surgery in farm animals?

Nerves coming out in the spinal outflow

Which vertebrae are anaesthetized in paravertebral anaesthesia for flank surgery in farm animals?

T 13, L1 and L2

How can the location of L1 be determined in beef cattle for paravertebral anaesthesia?

By guessing based on L2 and L3

Which block is mainly used for fixing left displaced abomasum (LDA) and caesarean in farm animals?

Paravertebral anaesthesia

Which block involves multiple needle sticks and can potentially interfere with surgery due to the presence of adrenaline around the incision site?

Line block

Which block aims to block the nerves coming out in the spinal outflow and is carried out in a similar way as the line block?

Inverted L block

Which block is preferred for flank surgery in farm animals due to its reliability in anaesthetizing the peritoneum?

Paravertebral anaesthesia

Which block involves palpating the distal tip of L1, with L2 slightly behind, and injecting local anaesthetic in the right nerve area?

Paravertebral anaesthesia

Which type of anesthesia is recommended for foot surgery?

Intravenous regional anesthesia

What is the main purpose of a Peterson block?

To preserve the structural aspects of the orbit in eye surgery

What is the contraindication for using procaine in epidural or intravenous administration?

It is not licensed for use in cattle

What type of anesthesia is recommended for perineal surgery?

Epidural

What is the preferred anesthesia option for flank surgery in farm animals?

Intravenous regional anesthesia

Which type of local block is mainly used for fixing left displaced abomasum (LDA) and caesarean in farm animals?

Paravertebral anaesthesia

What type of block is used for eyelid surgery to block motor function only?

None of the above

What is the contraindication for using procaine in epidural or intravenous administration?

History of seizures

What is the main purpose of a Peterson block?

None of the above

What type of anesthesia is recommended for perineal surgery?

None of the above

Which type of anesthesia is recommended for foot surgery if it involves removing a mass or performing a more invasive procedure like a floor removal?

Intravenous regional anesthesia

Which block is used for eyelid surgery to provide sensory blockade while still allowing the patient to blink?

Local infiltration

Which block is technically less difficult but potentially more destructive, and is mainly used for enucleation?

Retrobulbar block

Which block is more technically difficult but more likely to preserve the structural aspects of the orbit, and is used for more major eye surgery?

Peterson block

Which anesthesia option can be used for teat surgery to avoid using adrenaline directly in the region, but requires careful administration to avoid vasoconstriction and teat sloughing off?

Local infiltration

Test your knowledge on local blocks in farm animals and their use for anaesthesia during flank surgery. Learn about line blocks, inverted L blocks, and paravertebral anaesthesia, and understand their applications in fixing conditions like LDA and performing caesarean sections. Discover the advantages and potential challenges associated with each technique.
