| Summary | Forearm and hand surgeries are among the most frequently performed surgical interventions both in trauma patients and electively.In these procedures, alternative anesthesia methods such as general anesthesia, regional intravenous anesthesia, regional peripheral nerve blocks and local anesthesia are available. Peripheral nerve blockade can be used for anesthesia and analgesia.This method allows patients to undergo surgery without general anesthesia and increases patient satisfaction by providing effective analgesia in the postoperative period. The aim of this study was to compare the conventional and retroclavicular approaches to infraclavicular block in patients undergoing forearm and hand surgery. |
