Dexmedetomidine as an adjuvant to levobupivacaine in ultrasound guided supraclavicular brachial plexus block
Background: Alpha-2 agonists are added to local anesthetic agents to extend the duration of peripheral nerve blocks. Objective: We evaluated the effect of combining dexmedetomidine with levobupivacine with respect to duration of motor and sensory block and duration of analgesia. Material and Methods: Sixty patients of ASA grade I or II aged between 18-60 years, posted for elective upper limb su...
متن کاملDexmedetomidine an Adjuvant to Levobupivacaine in Supraclavicular Brachial Plexus Block: A Randomized Double Blind Prospective Study
BACKGROUND Apha-2 agonists are combined with local anesthetics to extend the duration of regional anesthesia. We evaluated the effect of combining dexmedetomidine with levobupivacine with respect to duration of motor and sensory block and duration of analgesia. METHODS Sixty patients scheduled for elective forearm and hand surgery were divided into two equal groups in a randomized double blin...
متن کاملUltrasound-guided supraclavicular brachial plexus block.
UNLABELLED In this study, we evaluated state-of-the-art ultrasound technology for supraclavicular brachial plexus blocks in 40 outpatients. Ultrasound imaging was used to identify the brachial plexus before the block, guide the block needle to reach target nerves, and visualize the pattern of local anesthetic spread. Needle position was further confirmed by nerve stimulation before injection. T...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of addition of dexmedetomidine on the duration of analgesia in patients undergoing upper limb surgeries under supraclavicular brachial plexus block. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sixty patients of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status I/II/III undergoing elective upper limb surgeries under supraclavicular brac...
متن کاملThe effect of dexmedetomidine as an adjuvant to ropivacaine on the bispectral index for supraclavicular brachial plexus block
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the sedative effect of dexmedetomidine (DEX) added to ropivacaine for supraclavicular brachial plexus block (BPB) using the bispectral index (BIS). METHODS Sixty patients (American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status 1 or 2, aged 20-65 years) undergoing wrist and hand surgery under supraclavicular BPB were randomly allocated to two gro...
