简要总结
Regional anesthesia involves injecting drug directly to the peripheral nerves to block pain and movements in surgical site, without affecting patient’s consciousness, it minimizes systemic side effects in comparison to general anesthesia.
Supraclavicular and infraclavicular brachial plexus block are common regional anesthesia techniques used for upper limb surgery.
Costoclavicular brachial plexus block is a modification of ultrasound guided infraclavicular technique.
Ultrasound guidance enhances safety as it allows precise visualization of nerves and hence provides faster onset.
Our hypothesis is that Costoclavicular brachial plexus block will cause rapid onset of nerve blockade compared to Supraclavicular brachial plexus block.
Factors such as onset of sensory and motor blocks, nerve sparing, procedural duration and duration of analgesia will be compared within the two groups.
