Summary

In this trial, the objective is to compare single- and double-injection ultrasound-guided costoclavicular blocks. The rationale behind this idea is that a second local anesthetic injection, inside the costoclavicular space, may compensate for the dynamic cord dispersion seen with the single-injection technique. Thus the research hypothesis is that, compared to its single-injection counterpart, a double injection costoclavicular block will result in a shorter onset time.

Interventions

OTHER

Single injection

Local anesthetic injection with a mixture of 35 mL of lidocaine 1.0%-bupivacaine 0.25% with epinephrine 5 µ/mL and dexamethasone 2 mg, in the middle of the three cords of the brachial plexus

OTHER

Double injection

Local anesthetic injection with a mixture of 35 mL of lidocaine 1.0%-bupivacaine 0.25% with epinephrine 5 µ/mL and dexamethasone 2 mg, in the middle of the three cords of the brachial plexus as well as at the intersection of the subclavian artery and the medial cord.

DRUG
