Application of ultrasound‐guided tumescent local anesthesia in prepectoral pacemaker implantation: A detailed procedural report

Ultrasound image‐guided tumescent local analgesia (TLA) is an effective technique in prepectoral pacemaker implantation surgery. The technique provides enough analgesic effect, at the same time, the pocket creation procedures become easy because of the hydrodissection effect of TLA solution. This te...

Description
Summary:Ultrasound image‐guided tumescent local analgesia (TLA) is an effective technique in prepectoral pacemaker implantation surgery. The technique provides enough analgesic effect, at the same time, the pocket creation procedures become easy because of the hydrodissection effect of TLA solution. This technique relieves patients from intra‐operative pain and relieves physicians from stresses during pocket creation.
