简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine feasibility, perceived utility and sustainability of training local providers in ultrasound guided regional anesthesia for acute pain management in a limited-resource conflict setting.

To the investigators knowledge, this is the first study of feasibility, perceived utility and sustainability of USRA as a pain management tool in a low-resource conflict setting and is one of the only large studies to date to assess USRA by local providers for emergent pain relief due to injury in patients presenting to an acute care center.
