AB An  increasing  number  of  patients  are  undergoing  surgical  procedures  in  hospital  outpatient  departments  (HOPDs)  or  ambulatory  surgery  centers  (ASCs).1  Outpatient  surgical  procedures  have  become  more  complex,  and  patients  are  presenting  for  surgery  with  a  greater  number  of  comorbid  conditions  than  in  the  past.2  Regional  anesthesia  (RA)  and  peripheral  nerve  blocks  (PNBs)  can  help  meet  the  goals  of  caring  for  these  patients  in  the  outpatient  setting.
