Abstrakt: Nerve blocks hold an important place in medicine. They are used to help with surgeries, allowing a painless surgical procedure without requiring the patient to be on full anesthesia. They can also provide a faster recovery period and apply to almost any body part. This paper summarizes how the nerve block became a procedure, the history of the drugs used and developed for it, and how machinery has allowed nerve blocks to progress to the point they are at today.
