Article Synopsis
- A tourniquet is commonly used during surgery to control bleeding but can cause severe pain, especially due to the nerve innervation in the inner arm.
- This study involved 60 patients divided into three groups to compare the effectiveness of traditional ICBN block versus ultrasound-guided ICBN block on reducing tourniquet pain.
- Both ICBN block methods significantly reduced pain compared to the control group, but there was no notable difference in effectiveness between the two techniques, with ultrasound guidance being recommended for increased success and safety.
