Accuracy of blind approach and ultrasound–guided techniques for pudendal nerve block in cadaveric cats - a pilot study

Key Points

• Finding shows that ultrasound-guided techniques are more accurate for pudendal nerve block compared to blind approaches.
• Accuracy rates of ultrasound-guided blocks were significantly higher, reaching 80% in this pilot assessment.
• This observational analysis involved cadaveric cats to evaluate the effectiveness of different nerve blockade techniques.
• Results indicate that ultrasound guidance may enhance the precision of anesthesia delivery for veterinary procedures.
