Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
There are four areas of interest to the regional anesthesiologist and acute pain physician in the anterior thigh. These include three nerves and their branches and one specific area. These nerves are the femoral nerve with its seven branches, the obturator nerve with its two branches, and the lateral cutaneous nerve of the thigh. The adductor canal is the anatomical area of interest, as an adductor canal block, although much debated and its true value questioned, has been popularized in recent years. These nerves and their areas of sensory distributions and the adductor canal are discussed in this chapter. A fourth nerve, the genitofemoral nerve, and more specifically, its femoral branch, also features in this area and is discussed in this chapter.
