Brachial plexus block puncture needle anesthesia

Brachial plexus block puncture needle anesthesia is suitable for short operations in the arm, such as humerus fracture, ulna fracture, radius fracture, etc. The procedure is that the patient goes into the operating room to establish a vein access, a surgical brachial plexus block on the radial side to do a puncture in the intermuscular sulcus, which is the lateral part of the neck, and if you have ulnar surgery, you usually have to do an axillary puncture, and the axillary puncture is at the apex of the axilla.

The duration of brachial plexus block alone can be 2-4 hours depending on the choice of drugs, and the duration of brachial plexus block may be extended for some patients who are sensitive to drugs. As the patients with brachial plexus block are awake during the operation, some of them cannot cooperate with the operation due to emotional tension. At this time, intravenous anesthesia can be used to make the patients fall asleep, ensure safety and facilitate the smooth operation.
