Ring block is the name of a nerve blocking local anesthesia procedure that is used to reduce the pain of non-therapeutic neonatal circumcision.
Ring block was proposed by Broadman et al. (1987) to reduce, not eliminate, the pain if a boy is to be circumcised. Broadman et al. also proposed the use of low-dose intravenous fentanyl for post-operative pain relief.[1]
Ring block is considered to be more effective than dorsal penile nerve block or EMLA cream.[2]
This procedure does NOT totally eliminate pain. A baby boy will still experience some pain and trauma with this analgesic procedure. Prevention of pain requires protecting a boy from elective neonatal non-therapeutic circumcision. Only boys who are protected from the medically unnecessary, non-therapeutic circumcision surgery experience no pain or trauma.
The penis is innervated by both dorsal and perineal nerves,[3] therefore ring block can never be totally effective.
