AbstractThe accessibility of the sciatic nerve from three directions (anterior, lateral and posterior) has prevented many patients from being moved, especially those who would be endangered by a change of position. A vein catheter is introduced in accordance with the approved technique up to the selected point. The stylus is withdrawn, the catheter is fixed on the skin by a suture or adhesive plaster, and by the use of a precisely fitting syringe the chosen local anesthetic solution is perfused. By this technique we can reblock the patient.
