Randomized Controlled TrialBrachial plexus block as a sole anaesthetic technique in upper extremity fracture/dislocation in children: subclavian perivascular vs parascalene approach.
To compare parascalene approach of brachial plexus block with the classical subclavian perivascular approach as a sole anaesthetic technique in children undergoing closed manipulation for fracture/dislocation around the elbow. ⋯ Parascalene approach to brachial plexus block is comparable to classical subclavian perivascular approach in safety, success rate and acceptance in children undergoing closed manipulation and reduction of fracture/dislocation around the elbow.
