Comparison Between Two Different Volumes of Anesthesia Drug in Forearm Surgery (COMBAX)

December 20, 2011 updated by: University Hospital, Brest

Comparison of Axillary Block Under Ultrasound With 40 or 25 ml of Xylocaine 1.5% Adrenalin in Forearm or Arm Surgery.

Hospitalized patients for superior member surgery have different types of anesthesia.Forearm and/or arm surgery could be done under general anesthesia, but in the most of the cases, this surgery was done under locoregional anesthesia.Several injections of local anesthesia at the nerves axilla are used with the used of ultrasonography.

The purpose of this study is to show that the anesthesia efficiency is the same with 40 or 25 ml of Xylocaine 1.5% Adrenalin in Forearm or Arm Surgery.
