Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
To compare the Sensory Motor Score for individual nerves in both the groups (Radial,Ulnar,Median,Musculocutaneous nerve). To compare duration of post operative analgesia in both the groups. Timepoint: The time immediately after LA injection will be considered as time 0mins for sensory and motor assessment. Every 5,10,15,20,25,30 min after block performance, assessed the sensory and motor block of Radial, Medial, Ulnar and Musculocutaneous nerve using Lovett score and duration will be 30 mins. Post operative analgesia will be assessed in both groups after 1hr.2hr.3hr.4hr.5hr and then every 6th hourly.	—
