Prolonged hemidiaphragmatic paralysis following interscalene brachial plexus block

Journal of Clinical Anesthesia, 2004
We present a case of persistent phrenic nerve paralysis after a successful interscalene brachial plexus block. In addition, there was no observed diaphragmatic stimulation, and the patient underwent an uneventful early postoperative period. Warning signs of a complication were either missed or absent until several days after discharge from the ...

open access: yesActa Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, 2000
Background: Although signs of sympathetic blockade following interscalene brachial plexus block include Horner’s syndrome, increased skin temperature and vasodilatation, the degree of sympathetic blockade is not easily determined.

COMPARISON OF INTERSCALENE BRACHIAL PLEXUS BLOCK AND COMBINATION OF INTERSCALENE BRACHIAL PLEXUS BLOCK AND SUPRASCAPULAR NERVE BLOCK FOR ANAESTHESIA FOR SHOULDER SURGERIES

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH, 2021
Objective- To compare analgesia, degree of motor block and hemodynamic effects of interscalene block with a combination of interscalene block and suprascapular nerve block employed for anaesthesia for shoulder surgeries. Methods- 46 patients of ASA grade I or II posted for shoulder surgery were divided into two groups of 23 patients each.

Extrafascial injection for interscalene brachial plexus block reduces respiratory complications compared with a conventional intrafascial injection: a randomized, controlled, double-blind trial [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Anaesthesia, 2016
BACKGROUND: Hemidiaphragmatic paresis after ultrasound-guided interscalene brachial plexus block is reported to occur in up to 100% of patients. We tested the hypothesis that an injection lateral to the brachial plexus sheath reduces the incidence of ...

A New Anatomical Brachial Plexus Variation during Interscalene Block

Nigerian Journal of Clinical Practice, 2023
ABSTRACT We aimed to present our anesthetic management for an ultrasound-guided (USG) interscalene block in the presence of a new brachial plexus variation in a 59-year-old male patient underwent shoulder arthroscopy. An accessory muscle between the anterior scalene (ASM) and middle scalene muscle (MSM) was viewed via
