Group I
ACTIVE COMPARATORUSG guided infraclavicular block with single operator jedi grip technique
Group 2
ACTIVE COMPARATORUSG guided infraclavicular block with conventional double operator technique
Interventions
USG guided infraclavicular block was applied to patients either by conventional two-person technique or by one person Jedi technique according to the allocated group. On Group I single operator controlled the probe with one hand while controlling the needle and the syringe on the other hand with the Jedi technique. The needle was held between the index finger and the middle phalanx of the middle finger, and the syringe was held with fingers 4 and 5, with the plunger part to the thumb in the palm. On Group II, operator used the probe and needle with different hands while an assistant controlling the syringe to aspirate or inject local anesthetic.
