Brief summary
Costoclavicular approach has lots of advantages compared to the lateral sagittal approach for infraclavicular brachial plexus block. Although the efficacy of this block has been demonstrated in adults, there are no randomized controlled trials in the literature on the application of pediatric patients. Our aim was to compare the ultrasound-guided infraclavicular and costoclavicular approach in pediatric patients.
Interventions
1:1 ratio 2% lidocaine, and 0.5% bupivacaine
Ultrasound-guided costoclavicular brachial plexus block
Ultrasound-guided lateral sagittal brachial plexus block
