Summary
This study looks at whether using a mild electrical current (neurostimulation) along with ultrasound makes nerve blocks work better for people having arm surgery. About 82 adults will take part. The goal is to see if the stimulation helps the block start faster and last longer, improving pain control during and after the operation.
