Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Costoclavicular approaach for infraclvicular block  In the costoclavicular space, the axillary artery is identified underneath the subclavius muscle .The three cords of brachial plexus will be visualised lateral to the artery. If the cephalic vein (or thoracoacromial artery) is visualised, the ultrasound transducer is tilted slightly cephalad in order to provide an adequate sonographic view of the costoclavicular space and the three cords of the brachial plexus . After skin infiltration, using an in-plane technique and a lateral to medial direction , the block needle is advanced until its tip is located in the middle of all three cords.  
Comparator Agent  Paracoracoid approach for infraclavicular block  After skin infiltration, using an in plane technique and a cephalad to caudal direction, the block needle will be advanced until its tip is located dorsal to the axillary artery

Brief Summary  

Brachial plexus block is an effective technique for upper extremity surgeries. This block can be executed using a variety of approaches. Here we are comparing 2 different approaches for Infraclavicular block (1-paracoracoid 2-costoclavicular) mainly for upper limb surgeries distal to elbow.

In the conventional Para Coracoid approach,the needle is placed in the lateral Infraclavicular fossa where the cords are in close proximity to the axillary artery, hence there will be high chance of  vascular breech in case of  Para coracoid approach.³ .And this technique is also technically challenging in patients with increased Body mass index. In this study we are comparing Paracoracoid versus costoclavicular infraclavicular block in terms of onset, duration and incidence of Hemidiaphragmatic paralysis in both the studies.

Primary objective: To compare the onset and duration of blocks  in the costoclavicular and paracoracoid approaches of Infraclavicular block.

Secondary objective:To assess the incidence of Hemidiaphragmatic paralysis between costoclavicular and paracoracoid approaches of  Infraclavicular block.
