NEA Peripheral Nerve Blocks. Peripheral nerve blocks play an important role in the anesthetic plan for patients undergoing many types of surgical procedures. A peripheral nerve block is accomplished by injecting a local anesthetic near the nerve, or nerves, that control sensation and movement to a specific part of the body.
Conduction block: The electrical pathway may also be blocked near the AV node, in between the atria and ventricles. A conduction block doesn't completely stop the heartbeat because another set of cells in the AV node or ventricles act as a secondary pacemaker. When this backup system goes into effect, the heartbeat is slower than when it is regulated by the SA node, which serves as the atrial pacemaker.
