Posterior brachial plexus block with nerve stimulator and 0.5% ropivacaine.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES There are several approaches to the brachial plexus depending on the experience of the anesthesiologist and the site of the surgery. Posterior brachial plexus block may be an alternative for shoulder, clavicle and proximal humerus surgery. This study aims at presenting the results of patients submitted to posterior brachial plexus block with 0.5% ropivacaine and the ai...
متن کاملSupraclavicular brachial plexus block using a nerve stimulator and an insulated needle.
A technique employing a nerve stimulator and an insulated needle was used for supraclavicular brachial plexus block in 71 patients using 0.5% plain bupivacaine 15-20 ml. The mean minimal stimulating current to produce paraesthesia was 0.09 mA. The plexus was identified at a mean depth of 27 mm below the skin. The block was successful in 98% of patients when the stimulation was felt in the index...
متن کاملComparision of nerve stimulator and ultrasonography as the techniques applied for brachial plexus anesthesia
BACKGROUND Brachial plexus block is useful for upper extremity surgery, and many techniques are available. The aim of our study was to compare the efficacy of axillary brachial plexus block using an ultrasound technique to the peripheral nerve stimulation technique. METHODS 60 patients scheduled for surgery of the forearm or hand were randomly allocated into two groups (n = 30 per group). For...

متن کاملEfficacy of ultrasound-guided axillary brachial plexus block: a comparative study with nerve stimulator-guided method.
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of axillary brachial plexus block using an ultrasound-guided method with the nerve stimulator-guided method. We also compared the efficacy of ultrasound-guided single-injection with those of double-injection for the quality of the block. METHODS Ninety patients scheduled for surgery of the forearm or hand were randomly allocated int...
