February 8, 2024 updated by: Çağdaş Baytar, Zonguldak Bulent Ecevit University

Effect of Different Approaches of Infraclavicular Brachial Plexus Block on Tissue Perfusion: A Randomized Trial

To compare the two different approaches of infraclavicular brachial plexus block in forearm, wrist and hand surgery in terms of perfusion index, tissue oxygenation, sensory and motor block onset time and total effect time, first analgesic time, side effects and complications, and duration of block application.
