## Description

A trusted reference for ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia, used by anesthesiologists and pain specialists worldwide. The app supports clinical preparation and learning across a wide range of regional anesthesia techniques.

Covering nerve block procedures from head and neck to upper and lower extremities, thoracic and abdominal wall blocks, it provides ultrasound-focused visuals, sonoanatomy, and step-by-step preparation. Common techniques such as TAP (Transversus Abdominis Plane) block, ESP (Erector Spinae Plane) block, Interscalene Brachial Plexus Block, and Popliteal Sciatic Nerve Block are presented, along with many other approaches, each with ultrasound-focused visuals and clear anatomy. Designed for everyday use, it combines sonoanatomy, patient positioning, and block-specific considerations to support confident decision-making before and during clinical practice. Developed by NYSORA, a global educational organization dedicated to advancing regional anesthesia through structured, practice-focused education.
