Abstract
The paper discusses the use of eponymous terminology in regional anesthesia. An eponym is the name of a method or any phenomenon that is used in anesthetic practice. Eponymous terms are an integral part of medical terminologies used in various specialties, as they contribute to a deeper understanding of the doctor’s activities. The paper discussed the difficulties of professional mastering of medical eponymous vocabulary. In conclusion, eponyms are the most important means of professional communication between anesthesiologists.
