Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the ergonomics of two approaches (conventional and modified parasagittal) in ultrasound-guided subclavian perivascular brachial plexus block in terms of the time taken to optimize the ultrasound image (duration of scanning) and time required to perform the block (duration of the procedure).Timepoint: During the performance of blocks and after the procedure

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To compare 1. Visibility of anatomical structures (pleura, first rib, sheath and elements of brachial plexus, subclavian artery, transverse cervical or dorsal scapular artery) 2. Onset of sensory and motor blocks 3. Sparing of the nerve(s) between the two groups 4. Requirement for supplemental blocks between the two groups 5. Duration of the block 6. Comfort of the patient while performing the block 7. Complications (if any)Timepoint: during and after the block
