Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate differences between ultrasound guided supraclavicular versus retroclavicular brachial plexus blocks: two similar brachial plexus nerve block techniques that differ in their needle trajectory and injection site.

Conditions

  • Phrenic Nerve Paralysis

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Supraclavicular vs Retroclavicular Nerve Block

An ultrasound-guided supraclavicular or retroclavicular nerve block with 30 ml of 0.5% ropivicaine will be performed on patients scheduled for lower arm surgery; 25 ml to be delivered to the brachial plexus and 5 ml to the intercostal nerve
