Study Overview
Brief Summary
The investigators aimed to compare the block characteristics of the single operator "jedi grip" technique and the conventional double operator technique.
Detailed Description
Patients undergoing hand, wrist, elbow and forearm surgery randomly assigned two groups (Group I: Jedi grip and Group II: Conventional double operator technique). By a blind observer, the block characteristics were evaluated and recorded .
Study Design

- Masking
- Single (Outcomes Assessor)
Masking Description
After completion of the block, a single blinded observer recorded demographic data and evaluated the block characteristics
