[Infraclavicular block with ultrasound at amputated upper extremity].
When ultrasound (US) is used in peripheric nerve blocks, successful nerve blocks can be performed even if nerve stimulation is not possible. In this case report, we present a 37-year-old male patient, ASA physical status I, undergoing debridement and grafting for incomplete arm whose upper extremity (forearm) was amputated due to electric shock; motor response to nerve stimulation was not possi...
متن کاملUltrasound-guided infraclavicular brachial plexus block.
BACKGROUND Peripheral nerve blocks are almost always performed as blind procedures. The purpose of this study was to test the feasibility of seeing individual nerves of the brachial plexus and directing the block needle to these nerves with real time imaging. METHODS Using ultrasound guidance, infraclavicular brachial plexus block was performed in 126 patients. Important aspects of this stand...
متن کاملUltrasound guided lateral sagital infraclavicular block for pectoral flap release.
Ultrasound may provide effective guidance during nerve blocks in cases where nerve stimulation is not feasible for various reasons. We describe a 28-year-old, ASA physical status I, male patient who was operated for pectoral flap release under lateral sagittal infraclavicular block. Using ultrasound guidance alone, total volume of 30 ml of local anesthetic mixture (15 ml of levobupivacaine 5 mg...
متن کاملA comparison of two techniques for ultrasound guided infraclavicular block.
BACKGROUND There is some debate about the proper site and arm position and the direction of the needle for the performance of ultrasound guided infraclavicular block. METHODS Using ultrasound, we compared the ease and success rate of a medial or a lateral approach to the brachial plexus for performing infraclavicular block in two groups of patients (n=202). The proximity of the needle to the ...
