Summary

The current study focused on ultrasound guided brachial plexus block (BPB) which plays an important role in patients with hand trauma either in pain control or for surgical intervention. The brachial plexus can be blocked by several techniques but the most commonly used are the supraclavicular (SCB) and axillary (AXB) blocks. Aim of this study is to compare between the two techniques as regard performance time, needling time, anesthesia related time, block related complications, number of needle pass, and block related pain. 80 patients were allocated randomly into two equal groups, under ultrasound guidance the SCB and AXB were done for the two groups respectively. The needling time, performance time, anesthesia related time, onset time, number of 1st needle pass in each group and block related complications were noted.
