Does anyone have a video of the sidelying technique to needle rhomboids and levator scap? I remember the idea behind the positioning but in the notes it says to use a lift technique and I’m having difficulty remembering if/how the lift technique was performed?
Here you go! The lift technique is for if you want to do it prone but I tend to do this technique more often and it is in side lying with the affected side down. Wing the scap out. And head towards the medial boarder of the winged scap. Drop the needle handle to the thorax so needle tip is away from the thorax.
**disclaimer…if you have not taken SFDN2 PLEASE do NOT attempt this technique. It is an advanced technique and needs proper instruction to perform safely. There is a high risk of a pneumothorax if performed incorrectly. video is for SFDN2 participants only!! **
