AB  - Nerve  injury  following  peripheral  nerve  blockade  (PNB)  is  a  potentially  devastating  complication  that  can  result  in  permanent  disability.1  Data  from  a  recent  review  of  published  studies  suggest  that  the  incidence  of  neurologic  symptoms  following  PNB  varies  depending  on  the  anatomic  location,  ranging  from  0.03%  for  supraclavicular  blocks  to  0.3%  for  femoral  blocks  to  up  to  3%  for  interscalene  blocks.2  Fortunately,  the  vast  majority  of  these  neuropathies  appear  to  be  temporary  rather  than  permanent  neuropathy  and  resolve  over  weeks  to  months.
