Özet
Peripheral nerve blocks (PNBs) are frequently applied to provide anesthesia and analgesia during surgery. Due to the development of technology, the number and success rate of PNBs have increased considerably. Many adjuvant drugs were used to increase the effects of local anesthetics in PNBs. The aim is to increase the speed of onset and prolong the block duration without toxicity. However, these perineural adjuvants, which are mostly used off-label, are associated with neurotoxicity. In this article, we aimed to investigate the neurotoxicity of adjuvants used in PNBs.
