Abstract:
Stellate ganglion block (SGB) is a specific type of peripheral nerve block in which local anesthetics and/or steroids are injected around the stellate ganglia.In the past,SGB was mainly used to alleviate pain-related syndromes.With the development of ultrasound technology,SGB has been widely used in non-analgesic fields,demonstrating significant therapeutic effects on arrhythmias,hot flashes,psychiatric disorders,cerebrovascular diseases,insomnia,and post coronavirus disease-2019 conditions in recent years.This study reviews the progress in the application of SGB in the non-analgesic fields.
