Summary

The purpose of the study is to compare efficacy, complications and safety of the standard method of Combined (superficial and deep) cervical plexus block (SDCPB) with Ultrasound guided Medial Cervical plexus block technique (MCPB).

Hypothesis: Ultrasound assisted MCPB is safer than SDCPB with similar efficacy.

Conditions

  • Cervical Plexus Block Comparison

Interventions

PROCEDURE

cervical block

In brief, the superficial block was performed using a 22G needle (07 x 40 mm). The mixture injected was 15 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine + 10 ml of 1% lidocaine. Deep cervical plexus block was performed using a Stimuplex DR stimulating needle and the dose of anaesthetic used was 10 ml 0.5% bupivacaine + 5 ml 1% lidocaine applied in the vicinity of the C3 nerve root. The MCPB performed using ultrasound-guidance aiming specifically for the interfascia space. Eighteen ml of 0.375% bupivacaine was injected into the interfascia space at the level of C3 vertebral body using a 22G needle (07 x 40 mm).
