AB  - Regional  anesthesia  is  an  essential  part  of  modern  pediatric  anesthetic  practice,  conveying  many  significant  advantages  to  the  patient  and  to  the  hospital  (Table  42–1).  However,  despite  a  strong  body  of  evidence  highlighting  the  advantages  of  regional  anesthesia,  it  has  been  only  relatively  recently  that  regional  anesthesia  has  begun  to  become  more  common  place  in  anesthetic  practice.  Large  prospective  studies  by  the  French-Language  Society  of  Pediatric  Anesthesiologists  (ADARPEF)  have  demonstrated  no  increased  risk  to  children  having  blocks  performed  under  general  anesthesia.1,2  However,  complications  were  four  times  greater  in  children  aged  less  than  6  months  compared  to  those  older  than  6  months.2
