What this study is about

Forearm and hand surgeries are among the most frequently performed surgical interventions both in trauma patients and electively.In these procedures, alternative anesthesia methods such as general anesthesia, regional intravenous anesthesia, regional peripheral nerve blocks and local anesthesia are available. Peripheral nerve blockade can be used for anesthesia and analgesia.This method allows patients to undergo surgery without general anesthesia and increases patient satisfaction by providing effective analgesia in the postoperative period. The aim of this study was to compare the conventional and retroclavicular approaches to infraclavicular block in patients undergoing forearm and hand surgery.

A promising-looking record is not the same as confirmed eligibility. The study team must review the full criteria and current recruitment status.

Treatments and study arms

Conventional approach to infraclavicular block

Procedure

Conventional approach to infraclavicular block will be performed on the patients using 20 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine 5ml of %2 lidocaine under ultrasound guidance.

Retroclavicular approach to the infraclavicular block

Procedure

Retroclavicular approach to the infraclavicular block will be performed on the patients using 20 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine 5ml of %2 lidocaine under ultrasound guidance.

Primary outcomes

Block Performance TimeDuring regional anesthesia

Total block performance time (from skin puncture to needle removal) will be recorded
