Background. Distal arm surgery is widely performed under regional anesthesia with brachial
plexus block. The preponderance of evidence for the efficacy relies upon injection of local …

Background: Regional anaesthesia offers the anaesthesiologist, the surgeon, as well as the
patient advantages over general anaesthesia such as being conscious through the surgery …

Background Regional anaesthesia for upper limb surgery is routinely performed with
brachial plexus blocks. A retroclavicular brachial plexus block has recently been described …

Background: Infraclavicular approach is a common technique of brachial plexus block. The
main difficulty of ultrasound guided technique is in needle visualization due to deep location …

Background Several approaches exist to produce local anaesthetic blockade of the brachial
plexus. It is not clear which is the technique of choice for providing surgical anaesthesia of …

Objective We hypothesized that ultrasound (US)-guided technique of the supra-and
infraclavicular and axillary approaches of brachial plexus block (BPB) will produce a high …

Background: Various approaches of Brachial plexus block (BPB) such as supraclavicular &
axillary have their own indications. In order to achieve the added advantages, these …

Background. For hand surgery, brachial plexus blocks provide effective anesthesia but
produce undesirable numbness. We hypothesized that distal peripheral nerve blocks will …

Brachial plexus block via the axillary approach is problematic in patients with limited arm
mobility. In such cases, the infraclavicular approach may be a valuable alternative. The …

Objective The aim of this study was to review and evaluate the selection and dose of
anesthetic agents and the interval from the block procedure to skin incision for …
