Summary

This clinical trial is for subjects undergoing right upper extremity surgery. The aim of the study is to investigate the dose-response relationship between local anesthetic volume and ipsilateral hemidiaphragmatic paresis (HDP) in patients getting ultrasound-guided supraclavicular brachial plexus blocks in a blinded, prospective trial.

  • Able to give informed consent

Exclusion Criteria

  • Patient refusal for supraclavicular block
  • Inability to give informed consent
  • Allergy to local anesthetics
  • Hemidiaphragmatic dysfunction, suspected or known pulmonary disease
  • Neuromuscular disease
  • Obstructive or restrictive pulmonary disease
  • Medical or anatomic contraindication to supraclavicular blockade as judged by clinician
  • Pregnancy
