Brief Summary
In the transarterial technique for axillary brachial plexus block, the axillary artery is intentionally punctured to indicate placement of the needle within the neurovascular sheath; local anesthetic is then injected deep and superficial to the axillary artery.

Study Arms (2)
US-guided periarterial techique
EXPERIMENTALAxillary brachial plexus block by an ultrasound-guided periarterial technique
US-guided multi-injection technique
EXPERIMENTALUltrasound-guided multi-injection perineural technique for axillary brachial plexus
Interventions
The needle will be inserted in the axillary fossa in-plane (cranial to caudal) close to the intersection of the pectoralis and biceps muscles. Two separate injections of local anesthetic will be made deep and superficial to the axillary artery
The median, ulnar and radial nerves will be identified by ultrasound. Local anesthetic will be injected adjacent to each nerve

You may not qualify if:
- Patients with pre-existing neuropathy
- Patients with allergy to local anesthetics
- Patients with prior surgery in the ipsilateral axilla
