Transition from Deep Regional Blocks toward Deep Nerve Hydrodissection in the Upper Body and Torso: Method Description and Results from a Retrospective Chart Review of the Analgesic Effect of 5% Dextrose Water as the Primary Hydrodissection Injectate to Enhance Safety

<div>(a) Procedure for interscalene brachial plexus hydrodissection: upper trunk. Needle positioning for hydrodissection of the C5 and C6 nerve roots/upper trunk. (b) Procedure for interscalene brachial plexus hydrodissection: middle trunk. Needle positioning for hydrodissection of the C7 nerve root/middle trunk. (c) Procedure for interscalene brachial plexus hydrodissection: lower trunk. Needle positioning for hydrodissection of the C8/T1 nerve root/lower trunk. (d) Procedure for interscalene brachial plexus hydrodissection: visualization of the injectate. Visualization of the injectate during hydrodissection of the middle trunk.</div>
