  • Title: Respiratory failure following intercostal nerve blockade.
    Author: Casey WF.
    Journal: Anaesthesia; 1984 Apr; 39(4):351-4. PubMed ID: 6711785.
    Abstract:
    A case of respiratory failure following postoperative intercostal nerve blockade is described. A possible mechanism is postulated and the evidence in favour of intercostal blockade in patients with chronic airways disease is questioned. The need for caution when managing such patients with regional blockade is emphasised.
