A prep solution that reduces nerve injuries by providing a durable bacterial barrier.

The gold standard treatment for a postdural puncture headache.

The local anesthetic associated with TENS and CES via microcatheter injection.

A needle type that, along with size, can cause a postdural puncture headache.

Nerves C3-C5 innervate the diaphragm.

Can impair external and internal intercostal muscles and abdominal muscles.

One of the first signs of appropriate neuraxial anesthesia positioning.

The three layers from superficial to deep: Dura, Arachnoid, Pia.

The meningeal layer that adheres to the spinal cord.

The meningeal layer that limits drug movement in and out of the CSF.

Occurs in neuraxial anesthesia due to blocked transmission of B fibers.

Caused by anxiety, hypotension, or opioid stimulation of the CTZ.

Pregnancy and old age are factors that enhance spread.

Can cause delayed respiratory depression when administered neuraxially.

Baricity and patient position are key factors for spinal anesthesia.

Taking long-acting antithrombotic medication is a significant contraindication.

Patient refusal, infection at the injection site, increased intracranial pressure.

Spine surgery is a relative contraindication.

First-line medication is epinephrine.

These anesthetics are more ionized in acidic conditions.

Affects sodium, potassium, calcium, and GPCR channels.

Bundles appear hyperechoic on ultrasound.

Includes diabetes, obesity, and male gender.

Use orange eye protection for argon lasers.

Use green eye protection for Nd:YAG lasers.

Clear eye protection is required for CO₂ lasers.

Should be used whenever lasers are utilized in the OR.

Let prep dry for at least 3 minutes to prevent fire hazards.

Includes stopping supplemental oxygen before electrocautery.

Should be postponed if the patient has active chest symptoms.

Use FiO₂ less than 30% if electrocautery is involved.
