Therapeutic approaches for the prevention of secondary brain injury.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:In the perivascular sheath of the brachial plexus, the volume of anaesthetic solution determines the quality of anaesthetic cover. Fibrous septa may divide the perivascular space into compartments, leading to inadequate diffusion of the anaesthetic solution. The aim of our study was to obtain g...
