Neuropathy<br />

A neuropathy occurs as a result of damage to a nerve, often from compression or irritation,<br />

which can result in motor and or sensory deficits. It can also result in pain.<br />

In anesthetic practice, neuropathies can be seen due to the effects of patient positioning and<br />

as a complication of regional anesthetic techniques.<br />
