Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Ultrasound-guided brachial plexus blocks (infraclavicular, axillary) can be applied as the main anesthetic method in hand and wrist surgeries, as well as single or combination block applications of the median, radial and ulnar nerves at the forearm level.

Here, we aimed to retrospectively evaluate the perioperative and postoperative data of patients who underwent hand and wrist surgery under distal nerve blocks and brachial plexus blocks in our hospital.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The retrospective files of patients who used ultrasound guided regional anesthesia techniques as the main anesthetic method in hand and wrist surgeries in our hospital between 01.01.2021 and 01.09.2022 will be examined. Patients over the age of 18 who go to hand and wrist surgery will be included. Patients who have undergone surgical intervention in more than one region in the same session and who have psychiatric disorders that will affect the perception of pain will be excluded from the study. Demographic characteristics, American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) scores, comorbidity, block performed (distal peripheral nerve block and/or brachial nerve block) and volume applied, block performance time, first analgesia times, surgery times, surgery types, discharge times, additional The existence of the complaint will be recorded. The data obtained by grouping the patients according to the type of anesthesia applied (brachial plexus block and distal nerve blocks) will be subjected to statistical analysis.
