Lu R, et al. - For lumbar plexus block, researchers developed a new in-plane technique, called the beach chair method, which displays images from the transverse process. Herein, they compared the operative difficulty and incidence of epidural spread of the beach chair method with those of the control method (at the plane of the articular process). The beach chair method vs the control method was found to be easier and was associated with a lower incidence of epidural spread. Hence, the beach chair method (at the plane of the transverse process) affords another promising option for lumbar plexus block for the non-obese population.
