• Status: Not yet recruiting

• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

Ultrasound-guided brachial plexus blocks are used successfully for upper extremity surgeries. In this randomized prospective single-blind study, ASA I-II patients aged 18-65 years undergoing hand, wrist, and forearm surgery will be randomly divided into two groups. First group will receive ultrasound-guided coronal oblique supraclavicular block using a 22G, 50 mm stimulator needle, and the second group, ultrasound-guided lateral sagittal infraclavicular block using a 22G 100 mm stimulator needle. We will prepare, 30 ml of 1:1 0.5% bupivacaine and 2% prilocaine with 5 mcg adrenaline per milliliter as local anesthetic mixture. Block application time, block success, sensory and motor block levels, and postoperative analgesia time will be recorded and compared between the groups. Accordingly, the success rate of the two methods will be evaluated.
