Computer Assisted Instrument Guidance (CAIG) for Orthopedic Peripheral Nerve Blocks

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Peripheral Nerve Blocks

In brief

The objective of this research is to determine if the addition of the Clear Guide ONE, a Computer Assisted Instrument Guidance (CAIG) system, provides improvement over existing ultrasound guided, needle-based procedures for peripheral nerve blocks. The ultrasound can visualize the targeted vessel or nerve, but the addition of the CAIG may help the clinician better guide the needle to the target.
