Analgesia for Clavicular Fracture and Surgery

Ultrasound-Guided Combined Interscalene-Cervical Plexus Versus Combined Supraclavicular-Cervical Plexus Block for Surgical Anesthesia in Clavicular Fractures: A Retrospective Observational Study

Compared efficacy of ultrasound-guided combined interscalene-cervical plexus versus combined supraclavicular-cervical plexus block for surgical anesthesia in clavicular fractures.

The primary objective of this study was to compare the effectiveness of ultrasound-guided combined interscalene-cervical plexus versus combined supraclavicular-cervical plexus block for surgical anesthesia in clavicular fractures.The hypothesis of this study was that the supraclavicular-cervical plexus block could provide better anesthesia with less anesthesia related complications.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Surgery of the clavicular fractures under combined cervical plexus plus brachial plexus block
• Urgent or planned surgery

Exclusion Criteria:

• Refused to sign informed consent
• Pregnant women
• Allergic to the local anesthetic
