Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the incidence of hemi diaphragmatic paresis following Interscalene brachial plexus block (IBPB) performed using three different volumes of local anaestheticsTimepoint: Till 24 hours postoperatively

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1)Success rate of Interscalene brachial plexus block 2)Onset of sensory blockade 3)Duration of postoperative analgesia 4)Adverse effects of IBPB like hoarseness of voice, Horners� syndrome, vascular puncture, pneumothorax Timepoint: 1)To reach a score of 2 within 30 min of Interscalene block 2)Onset time for a sensory block is the time elapsed between the end of the block procedure and the moment when the pinprick test yielded a score of 2 3)24hrs postoperatively 4)Till 24hrs postoperatively
