Summary

This study tests a new way to give numbing medicine for arm surgery. Instead of using a standard dose based on weight or doctor's judgment, the dose is calculated from the nerve's size measured by ultrasound. The goal is to see if this personalized approach works just as well or better, with fewer side effects. About 300 adults having elective upper limb surgery will take part.
