Pectoralis Nerve Block

Pectoralis Nerve Block

The pectoral nerve (Pecs) block I and II are a novel technique to block the pectoral nerves, intercostal nerves 3 to 6, intercostobrachial nerves, and the long thoracic nerves. The technique is simple to perform, and the clinician can perform it with little or no sedation in the pre-operative holding area. This activity outlines Pecs block I and II and highlights the role of the healthcare team in improving care for patients undergoing a variety of anterior chest wall surgeries, most commonly breast surgery.
