    AbstractAccidents in children can occur at any moment of the day. A child has rarely an empty stomach and it is very difficult to determine when he ate or drank for the last time. The stress of the accident can slow the digestion and even stop completely. Waiting for 6 hours will not reduce the risk of inhalation of gastric contents during general anesthesia. Pain and anxiety often present with anatomical deformation may be the cause of panic that should be promptly appeased. For these reasons, there has been an increase in interest in the use of nerve block techniques in children as has been the case in adults. We carry on Brachial Plexus Blocks and Epidural Blocks.
