Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist in critically ill postoperative patients: a crossover randomized study.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The main disadvantage of the posterior approach to the block of the sciatic nerve in the popliteal fossa (popliteal block [PB]) is the need to place the patient in the prone position. In this study, the authors examined the clinical utility of a recently described lateral approach to PB that is performed wit...
