Brief summary

Hospitalized patients for superior member surgery have different types of anesthesia.Forearm and/or arm surgery could be done under general anesthesia, but in the most of the cases, this surgery was done under locoregional anesthesia.Several injections of local anesthesia at the nerves axilla are used with the used of ultrasonography. The purpose of this study is to show that the anesthesia efficiency is the same with 40 or 25 ml of Xylocaine 1.5% Adrenalin in Forearm or Arm Surgery.
