dc.description.abstractABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Supraclavicular brachial plexus block provides anesthesia for surgeries around elbow, forearm and hand. With advent of opioid receptors, variety of opioid agents is used for postoperative analgesia via brachial plexus block. Butorphanol and Buprenorphine can be used along with local anesthetics to provide post op analgesia. AIMS: 1) To study the onset and extent of sensory and motor blockade. 2) To compare the duration of postoperative analgesia in two groups.en_US

INTRODUCTION: Acute postoperative pain is a complex physiological reaction to tissue injury or disease. Its manifestation of autonomic, psychological and behavioral responses results in unpleasant, unwanted sensory and emotional experience. Despite advances in knowledge of patho-physiology of pain, pharmacology of analgesics and development of effective techniques for post-operative pain control, many patients continue to experience considerable discomfort.1 Brachial Plexus block provides adequate anesthesia and post-operative analgesia for all the upper limb procedure. Supraclavicular brachial plexus block provides anesthesia for surgeries around elbow, forearm and hand.2, 3 With this technique, land marks are easy to locate and tourniquet pain is better tolerated. With advent of opioid receptors, variety of opioid agents are used for post-operative analgesia via brachialen_US
