The purpose of this study was to describe a modified short-bevel needle technique, facilitating correct needle placement, for inguinal hernia repair. Anaesthetists from two different institutions performed the described infiltration blocks. Prospective data were collected from these groups, each having 30 patients. We evaluated the safety and reliability of the described block. Of the 60 patients, two were \u201cfailed\u201d blocks, requiring conversion to general anaesthesia. There were no other major intraoperative or recovery room complications. Results of the modified inguinal field block showed a 97% ability to achieve a \u201cfair\u201d block or better. Intraoperative and postoperative data showed high surgeon and patient satisfaction for the block. The described block using a short-bevel needle is recommended as a suitable method for adult patients undergoing inguinal hernia repair.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0310057x9502300202","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,22]],"date-time":"2019-01-22T18:20:29Z","timestamp":1548181229000},"page":"143-148","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Inguinal Field Block for Adult Inguinal Hernia Repair Using a Short-Bevel Needle.
