Abstract
An increased interest in regional anesthesia in the pediatric practice was noted; however, the frequency of using regional blockages in children is much lower than in adults. This is facilitated by the insufficient awareness of anesthesiologists about the peculiarities of children’s physiology, fear of the child, fear of side effect development, and simply, unwillingness to use regional methods. This situation can be corrected at the stages of training young specialists.
Promoting regional anesthesia is required in the pediatric practice for residency training by improving theoretical knowledge and manual skills. This requires interest, knowledge, practical skills, and equipment.
