Our free videos illustrate these techniques. One of our favourite blocks is the simple line block. In this free video we demonstrate how easy this technique is. Follow this link for videos demonstrating line blocks in both cats and dogs.
A recent study reviewed the benefit of the combination of a line block and intraperitoneal anaesthesia. The study concluded there was a benefit to the combination - what we need to see is a study with one group if dogs receiving a line block, one receiving IP local and one group receiving the combination: that would really give us the answers we require.
