Somatosensory Evoked Potential (SSEP) Monitoring for Brachial Plexus Injury

NCT03409536 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 40

Last updated 2020-02-19

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Brachial plexus block is a common regional anesthesia technique which is performed by anesthesiologists to anesthetize the arm for surgery. In this study, we are investigating the relationship between the nerve conduction (induced by brachial plexus block) and the patients' symptoms before and after the brachial plexus block. We will attach a nerve conduction device (SSEP device) to monitor the patients' arm conduction and we will assess the patients' symptoms simultaneously.

Conditions

  • Brachial Plexus Injury
  • Peripheral Nerve Injuries

Interventions

DEVICE

SSEP monitoring

Participants will be monitored using the SSEP device both before and after induction of a brachial plexus block.
