Abstract

Aim: To retrospectively evaluate the results of a new infraclavicular brachial plexus blockade method with a reference point of major tubercle which we have used and improved for five years. Material and Methods: The anesthesia reports of 121 patients who underwent arm, forearm and hand surgery were evaluated retrospectively. The demographic findings, adequacy of surgical anesthesia, additional sedative and analgesic requirements and recorded complications were evaluated. Results: We determined that the block we applied was satisfactory in providing surgical anesthesia in 85 % of our patients. No pneumothorax, haemothorax, Horner syndrome or vascular puncture were encountered. Convulsions were developed in two patients without squeal. Conclusion: Infraclavicular brachial plexus block technique in which the tuberculum majus is taken as a reference point may be an alternative brachial plexus blockade method for the patients undergoing upper extremity surgery.

Özet

Amaç: Kliniğimizde beş yıldır uygulanan, humerusun büyük tüberkülü referans alınarak geliştirdiğimiz yeni bir infraklaviküler brakiyal pleksus bloğu yönteminin sonuçları geriye dönük olarak değerlendirildi. Gereç ve Yöntem: Yöntemi uygulamış olduğumuz kol, önkol ve el cerrahisi geçiren 121 hastanın anestezi izlem formları geriye dönük olarak incelendi. Hastaların bireysel özellikleri, cerrahi anestezi yeterliliği, ek sedasyon ve analjezi gereksinimi ile kaydedilmiş komplikasyonlar değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Hastaların % 85’inde bloğun cerrahi anestezi için yeterli olduğu, % 15 hastada ise cerrahi anestezi sağlanamadığı saptandı. Hastaların hiçbirinde pnömotoraks, hemotoraks, Horner Sendromu, vasküler ponksiyona rastlanmadı. İki hastada sekelsiz konvülsiyon geliştiği görüldü.Sonuç: Humerusun büyük tüberkülü referans alınarak yapılan infraklaviküler brakiyal pleksus bloğu, üst ekstremite cerrahisi uygulanacak hastalarda diğer brakiyal pleksus bloğu yöntemlerine alternatif olabilir.
