Dr. @deepakattail.bsky.social, peds anesthesiologist, POCUS course director, & Assoc. Editor at Baby Blocks at @sickkidsto.bsky.social, invites you to our Pediatric Regional Anesthesia & POCUS Course! She’s created an incredible hands-on experience. Join us this spring!: bit.ly/PedsAnesthesia2025

We’re thrilled to spotlight Dr. Sampaguita Tafoya! The first to take a chance on joining Baby Blocks, she continues to inspire us. If she weren’t doing peds regional, she’d be photographing newborns, baking & teaching Pilates—all in one day! Join us this spring in NYC! 🔗 bit.ly/PedsAnesthesia2025

If Dr. Can Aksu weren’t leading pediatric regional anesthesia, he’d be locking down the paint, racking up blocks, and running the court with surgical precision. But instead of swatting shots, he’s shutting down pain—one nerve block at a time. Learn from him this spring. bit.ly/PedsAnesthes...

If John wasn't teaching peds regional, he’d be off the grid chasing backcountry powder—or spinning deep cuts on college radio at 2 AM, no requests, just vibes. Instead of carving lines or cueing records, he’s teaching you this spring. #babyblocksRA #MSKpedsanesCME 🔗 bit.ly/PedsAnesthesia2025

Abdominal truncal blocks have transformed pediatric regional anesthesia—but remember, one size doesn’t fit all! Sometimes, a mix-and-match approach is just what’s needed. #babyblocks #RASky #pedanessky #anessky @deepakattail.bsky.social www.baby-blocks.com/abdomen

Our final newsletter of the year is out. As we approach three years, I’m reflecting on the growth, changes, and plans ahead—including our first conference! @deepakattail.bsky.social #babyblocks #pedanessky Take a look: www.baby-blocks.com/newsletter/turning-three-growth-goodbyes-and-the-road-ahead

Deliberate Practice is vital for mastering regional anesthesia. Fact: Focused training improved procedural steps by 4–6x (Ahmed et al., 2018). Likely the most important concept on our site—start your journey to mastery today! #babyblocks #pedanesky #anesky baby-blocks.com/adding-ra-to...

Day 6: The Superficial Parasternal Intercostal Plane Block targets anterior cutaneous branches, providing effective analgesia for sternotomy & breast surgery. Fun fact: It avoids pleural & vascular puncture, making it safer (though not without considerations)! www.baby-blocks.com/block-detail...

Day 5: The Sacral Multifidus/ESP Block targets dorsal rami for sacral & pelvic pain relief with minimal motor impairment. Its versatility makes it ideal for chronic pain & postop relief—and it’s our most popular regional page of 2024! www.baby-blocks.com/block-detail... #pedanessky #babyblocks

Join me today at Project Echo rounds where we’ll have a case study and short lecture on cannabis for #pedspain management. Register here: echo.zoom.us/meeting/regi... #ansky #pedsanessky #painsky

The Supraclavicular Block is a mainstay in N. America for its reliable, dense brachial plexus blockade. Fun fact: While preferences vary globally, it accounted for > 50% of upper extremity blocks in PRAN’s seminal 2018 study (Walker et al). #pedanessky #babyblocks baby-blocks.com/block-detail...

Day 3: The suprazygomatic block provides direct access to trigeminal nerve branches, making it ideal for facial analgesia—great for cleft lip, cleft palate, & perhaps even tonsillectomy! Learn more from @stanfordanes.bsky.social Dr. Mo Esfahanian: www.baby-blocks.com/block-detail...

One of the most-visited pages of 2024, the Infraorbital nerve Block remains a go-to for H&N procedures, including Cleft Lip and FESS procedures. What are you all using it for? www.baby-blocks.com/block-detail...

As we close out 2024, we’re celebrating 7 standout pages that made this year unforgettable! From advanced techniques to tools for mastery, these resources helped us grow—and (hopefully) helped YOU grow. First up: www.baby-blocks.com/vascular-acc... And no, the irony is not lost on us!
