Ultrasound vs. blind shot: finding the best way to block arm surgery pain

NCT ID NCT05864872

Summary

This study tested whether using ultrasound to guide injections for numbing specific nerves in the upper arm is better than the traditional 'blind' method at reducing tourniquet pain during surgery. It involved 140 adults having upper limb surgery. Researchers compared pain levels and the need for extra pain medication between the two nerve-blocking techniques.
