Summary Introduction
To determine: The area of the body that will get affected when an anesthetic blocks the function of the anterior rami of the cervical spinal nerves.
Introduction: The spinal nerves are the collection of nerves that serve as the major part of the peripheral nervous system. These nerves are the mixed type of nerves that involve in transmission of sensory, motor, and autonomic signals between the spinal cord and various parts of the body.
