Multimodal pain control.
Multimodal pain control means managing pain with a combination of methods that work in different ways, rather than relying on any single medication. By layering several approaches, our anesthesiologists keep you comfortable while reducing side effects and minimizing the amount of opioid medication you need.
A typical plan may combine regional nerve blocks, non-opioid medications such as acetaminophen and anti-inflammatories, targeted local anesthetic at the surgical site, and, when appropriate, a limited course of opioids. This layered approach is a cornerstone of modern Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols and is associated with better pain control, earlier mobility, and a smoother recovery.
Nerve blocks, explained.
A nerve block is a form of regional anesthesia. Using ultrasound guidance, your anesthesiologist places local anesthetic near the specific nerves that carry pain signals from the surgical area, numbing that region before and after your procedure. Depending on the surgery, a block may reduce or replace the need for general anesthesia, provide hours of pain relief afterward, and lower how much opioid medication you require.
Your anesthesiologist will review your health, your procedure, and your preferences, then recommend the block best suited to you and discuss it with you beforehand. Not every block is right for every patient.
Fewer opioids, better recovery
Regional anesthesia is a key reason patients today often need less opioid medication after surgery, with less nausea and grogginess and a faster return to normal activity.
Common nerve blocks
Spinal & epidural (neuraxial)
Local anesthetic placed near the spinal nerves to numb the lower body. Used for cesarean delivery, labor analgesia, and many lower-abdominal, pelvic, and lower-extremity procedures.
Brachial plexus block
Numbs the shoulder, arm, or hand by targeting the nerve network that supplies the upper limb (interscalene, supraclavicular, or axillary approach). Used for shoulder, elbow, wrist, and hand surgery.
Femoral & adductor canal block
Targets the nerves to the front of the thigh and knee for knee replacement, ACL repair, and other knee procedures. The adductor canal approach preserves more leg strength for earlier walking.
Popliteal sciatic block
Numbs the lower leg, foot, and ankle, commonly used for foot and ankle surgery.
TAP block (transversus abdominis plane)
Local anesthetic placed within the abdominal wall to ease pain after abdominal and pelvic surgery, including hernia repair and cesarean delivery.
Pectoralis (PECS) & paravertebral block
Numbs the chest wall to improve comfort after breast and certain thoracic procedures.
Fascia iliaca block
Covers the nerves to the hip and upper thigh to relieve pain from hip fractures and hip surgery.
