This prospective, randomised, observer-blinded study was conducted to compare the ease
of performance and surgical effectiveness of interscalene block below the C6 nerve root with …

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 Historically, the anterolateral interscalene block—deposition of local anesthetic
adjacent to the brachial plexus roots/trunks—has been used for surgical procedures …

Purpose The aim of this study was to compare the combined ultrasound-guided
supraclavicular brachial plexus block (SCB) and distal median, radial, and ulnar nerve …

Methods: Sixty adult patients scheduled for elective upper limb surgery of the elbow and/or
below were randomly divided into two groups: infraclavicular Group (I) and supraclavicular …

Background and Objectives It has recently been proposed that an infraclavicular brachial
plexus block (BPB) at the costoclavicular (CC) space may overcome some of the limitations …

This prospective, randomised, observer blinded study compared the onset time of brachial
plexus block using 2% lidocaine 25–30 ml with adrenaline 5 μg. ml− 1 into the 'corner …

Background and Objectives: This prospective, randomized, observer-blinded study
compared single-and double-injection, ultrasound-guided supraclavicular brachial plexus …

Results: Demographic data were comparable in both groups. The mean time taken for the
procedure to administer a block by eliciting paresthesia is less compared to ultrasound, and …
