Stop blocking on autopilot. A new learning series by GE HealthCare × Block It Like It's Hot
GE HealthCare × Block It Like It's Hot brings you a practical video series on ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia, designed for clinicians who want more than standard approaches.
Join Prof. Amit Pawa and Prof. Jeff Gadsden as they break down real-world techniques, from probe positioning and needle trajectory to anatomical assessment and in-the-moment decision-making.
By watching the sessions, you'll learn how to:

Stop blocking the knee like it’s 1999
Knee analgesia is more than pain scores. Amit and Jeff walk through adductor canal and femoral triangle blocks, geniculars, iPACK, cutaneous blocks, and useful adjuncts, with a focus on mobility, recovery, and preserving motor function.

Time to get hip with hip analgesia
A practical review of femoral, fascia iliaca (infra- and suprainguinal), LFCN, and PENG blocks across hip fracture, arthroplasty, and ambulatory cases.

Don't just shrug. Master modern shoulder blocks
Shoulder blocks require more than defaulting to interscalene. This session covers superior trunk, suprascapular, axillary, and cervical plexus approaches, with attention to recovery and respiratory considerations.

Ultrasound unplugged: Live scanning is where anatomy, technique and clinical decision-making come together. In this first masterclass, Jeff and Amit take questions from the audience and explore them through real-time ultrasound scanning, sharing practical tips, anatomical insights and techniques that can be applied at the bedside

Ultrasound unplugged: What happens when ultrasound questions meet live scanning? In this second masterclass, Jeff and Amit respond to other questions from the audience, using live ultrasound to explore anatomy, troubleshoot common challenges and share practical techniques for regional anesthesia.

Don't just chase the nerves, trace the nerves
Upper limb blocks require more than finding the nerves at a single point. Amit and Jeff trace the brachial plexus beyond the clavicle, exploring how the anatomy changes from infraclavicular to axillary and distal forearm approaches, with practical scanning tips to recognize anatomical variation and select the right approach for wrist, hand and forearm procedures.

Plane and simple: chest wall blocks without the guesswork
Chest wall blocks require more than knowing where to place the probe. Amit and Jeff break down the anatomy behind paravertebral, ESP and intercostal blocks, then explore PECS, serratus and parasternal approaches for anterior chest wall coverage, with practical scanning tips for breast surgery, thoracic surgery and rib fracture analgesia.
