About this study
Official title: Comparison Between Ultrasound-Guided and Landmark-Based Superficial Cervical Plexus Block:A Retrospective Observational Study
This retrospective observational study compare ultrasound-guided plane and landmark-based superficial cervical plexus block
Read the detailed description
Traditionally, the superficial cervical plexus is blocked using a subcutaneous infiltration of local anesthetics along the posterior border of the sternocleidomastoid muscle.Recently, ultrasound has been used to identify intermuscular planes to carry out transversus abdominis plane and obturator nerve blocks.Thus, to validate this new method, the investigators conducted a retrospective observational study comparing ultrasound and the conventional landmark-based technique for superficial cervical plexus.
