No results posted yet for this study

Summary

the investigators are interested in assessing the feasibility and value of brachial plexus block at the level of the humeral head in children. As a first step, the investigators propose to carry out a sono-anatomical study to describe the plexus at this level, the distribution of nerves in relation to the axillary artery, and the description of bone and muscle structures.

Conditions

  • Anesthesia, Local
  • Brachial Plexus; Pressure

Interventions

OTHER

Sono-anatomical Study

The arm is abducted (90°), externally rotated, with the forearm flexed over the arm (90°). A linear ultrasound probe (8-15 MHz) is placed in front of the humeral head, in a sagittal plane. Location begins at axillary level, vessels, nerves and humerus are identified, and the probe is moved medially to reach and identify the humeral head.
