Tripped across this page. Sad to say, but I've never heard the term neuraxial anesthesia (despite doing it 30x a day). I'm concerned that neuraxial anesthesia is an uncommon term for many/most. Would we be better to rename to History of nerve block or expand topic to history of local anesthesia? Ian Furst (talk) 14:21, 14 February 2014 (UTC)Reply
