COMPARISON OF PLEXUS BRACHIAL BLOCKADE EFFECT BY SUPRACLAVICULAR AND AXILLARY APPROACH - OUR EXPERIENCE.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionBrachialis plexus block is a frequently used method of regional anesthesia that can be performed in several ways and locations. It has been successfully performed to provide good anesthesia and analgesia lasting several hours for operative procedures on hands. It can be performed by paresthesia technique or by ultrasound that has almost pushed out the old conventional technique since it allows the visualization of the blockade performance. TARGET: In the paper we use our sample to try to determine which of the two locations of the blockageis more favorable for the patient, and which one gives a higher percentage of success or a better sensory blockade.
methodThis is a retrospective study and includes 40 patients of both sexes that were operated on at the Clinic for Traumatology and the Clinic for Plastic Surgery of the University Clinical Center in Sarajevo in the period from 30 August 1993 to 30 August 1994. Patients were divided into two groups. Group I were patients who had an axillary approach to plexus brachialis (n-21) ASA I-II. Group II were patients who had supraclavicular access to plexus brachialis (n-19) ASA I-II. All patients received 0.5 ml / kg Bupivacaine 0.5%. In the study, we analyzed sex, age, duration of blockade and complications. Analgesia and motor block were evaluated 20 minutes after the local anesthetic injection. The complete block is defined as analgesia in all dermatomes (C5-Th1) 20 minutes after injection. THE
resultsGroup I had 20 male and 1 female patients while group II had 17 male and 2 female patients. The supraclavicular block enabled complete blockade in 18 patients (95.23%), and the axillary approach had a successful blockade in 17 patients (80.95%). In both groups the corresponding motor block was similar. The start of the engine block was similar in both groups. There were no significant complications in either group.
conclusionRegarding clinical efficacy, both brachial plexus blocking approaches provided a good motor block, anesthesia and analgesia for the forearm or hand surgery. Supraclavicular approach proved to be more favorable.
