Pain Management in Presence of Nerve Blocks

The purpose of the study is to investigate nurses' perceptions of pain management and opioid use in patients who have received nerve blocks. This research aims to explore various aspects related to the utilization of nerve blocks in pain management protocols and the potential implications for opioid prescribing practices. Specifically, the study seeks to: Assess the adequacy of pain management in patients who receive nerve blocks, as perceived by frontline healthcare providers. Evaluate nurses' perceptions of the effectiveness of nerve blocks in providing targeted pain relief compared to traditional opioid-based analgesia. Investigate nurses' attitudes towards opioid sparing strategies and whether they believe patients who have received nerve blocks require fewer opioids for pain management. Examine nurses' experiences with and attitudes towards training in pain management, particularly in the context of nerve blocks, to identify potential areas for improvement in professional development. Explore the integration of evidence-based practices into clinical care and the extent to which nerve
