Axillary Brachial Plexus Block

[@tikaei]

My tip: start with the musculocutaneous nerve to prevent that some patients might move or pull away their forearm while you are hydrodissecting the other nerves.

This is really helpful for me. You summarized this block very effectively which is why I can do it easily.

I was taught by people who over complicated the distribution of local near all nerves. Was quite hit a miss. Your simplification of local placement has improved success rate markedly. Thanks

Great illustration ❤

So my frustration is that neither supraclavicular nor axillary block provide a reliable block for ulnar nerve transposition. The entire arm is numb except for the incision site. I’m assuming I’m missing the median cutaneous nerve. Is this nerve usually blocked with axillary block? If not, what additional block can I do for post op analgesia? Or is it just my technical shortcomings? It def could be my technique, although my blocks usually work for other upper extremity procedures.

Hi there, it sounds to me like you’re missing the intercostobrachial +/- medial cutaneous nerve of the arm. This is super common with axillary brachial plexus blocks (so it’s NOT your technical ability 😊). And the good news is there’s an easy fix for that. Check out this video which goes through the anatomy and a couple of solutions: m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y6jTm6dmq9d2nNk

O: your images are so clear! What type of probe do you use?

Why is it OK to inject local anesthetic in the sheath at this level, but should you stay out of it at the supraclavicular level?

[@Justmemy12]

Whenever posible it decrease the odds of complications but is not contraindicated if needed just more dangerous

[@matthewbilbily8872]

what do people like to inject as their local solution for a good surgical block

[@zakalobi80]

What frequency do you use for that nice and clear image?

[@No-xh2cs]

Probably 15mhz
