Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: All adult patients (18 years and over) scheduled for mid-shaft and lateral shaft clavicular fracture repair using a nerve block as anesthesia.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Patients who refused to participate in the study. 2. Patients with a history of cardiac, renal, or hepatic disease. 3. patients with pre-existing neurologic deficits or neuropathy affecting the brachial plexus. 4. patients with contraindications to peripheral nerve block 6. patients with known allergies to local anesthetic drugs.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Incidence of diaphragmatic paresis or paralysis assessed as change in the diaphragmatic excursion (measured bilaterally using ultrasonography) due to the regional block after shifting to PACU.Timepoint: baseline, one time after shifting to recovery in PACU and at 24 hours

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. Time to the first analgesic 2. Pain scores for all patients will be recorded through the first 24 hours postoperatively using the Visual analogue scale (ranging from 0 to 10, 0 is no pain and 10 is the worst imaginable pain). 3. Intraoperative fentanyl consumption in the two groups 4. Need for general anaesthesia 5. Intraoperative hemodynamic changes in the two groups. 6. Opioid Consumption (tramadol) in the recovery room and in the first 24 hours postoperatively will be recorded 7. Patient-reported adverse effects like dyspnea, biceps/triceps/hand weakness, hemidiaphragmatic paralysis (20min post-block and 24 hours after surgery), Horner syndrome, hoarseness, and difficulty participating in physical therapy due to block will be recorded over 48 hours post-surgery 8. Patient satisfaction with the nerve block.Timepoint: time to first rescue analgesic anagesic when patient needs analgesia pain scores 0,2,4,8,12 and 24 hours fentanyl consumption during surgery need for GA as per incidence hemodynamic at 10 min interval side effects occurence will be recorded in first 24 hours patient satisfaction after surgery
