About this study

Official title: Comparison of the Block Characteristics of Ultrasound Guided Costoclavicular and Infraclavicular Block With the Perfusion Index

With this study, it was aimed to compare the block characteristics evaluated with traditional methods in infraclavicular and costoclavicular block applications performed in upper extremity surgery in our clinic with the perfusion index

Read the detailed description

Peripheral nerve block is to anesthetize the dermatomes belonging to the nerve or nerve group to which the block is applied, by performing sympathetic, sensory and motor blocks. Brachial plexus blockade; It is a peripheral nerve blockage that can be used in surgical operations to be performed on the upper extremity and can be performed at the level of interscalene, supraclavicular, infraclavicular, costoclavicular, axillary and terminal nerves.

The costoclavicular brachial plexus block has been used as an alternative to lateral sagittal infraclavicular block, due to its ease of application, its rapid onset of action and its high success rate. The effectiveness of the block is measured by sensory, motor and sympathetic block effects. The sensory block can be evaluated by cold or pinprick test, and motor block by traditional methods such as the patient's response to verbal commands and can be objective.

Sympathetic block manifests itself with vasodilation and an increase in blood flow rate and can be measured with the more quantitative perfusion index (PI). The perfusion index represents the ratio of pulsatile blood flow to static blood flow in peripheral tissue and can be measured continuously and noninvasively from a pulse oximeter. Successful peripheral nerve blockade; It is seen as local vasodilation, increased local blood flow, some increase in skin temperature and loss of sensation in the extremity due to the blockage of sympathetic fibers. It can be a guide in determining the effectiveness of the block because it is noninvasive and easy, providing rapid evaluation, without requiring patient cooperation to evaluate the success of the block.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Costoclavicular and Infraclavicular Block for Patients Who Have Undergone Hand,Forearm and Arm Surgery, run by Izmir Ataturk Training and Research Hospital at 2 sites in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Sep 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Correlation of perfusion index with infraclavicular and costoclavicular block success (time frame: 3 Months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Sep 2021.
