Summary

Clavipectoral fascia plane block (CPB). CPB was defined by Valdes in 2017 firstly. It may be used for postoperative analgesia after clavicle surgery. In the literature, data about CPB is so limited, however it seems a good option for pain management after clavicle fracture. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the ultrasound-guided CPB for postoperative analgesia management and patient satisfaction in patients underwent clavicle surgery.

Detailed description

Clavipectoral fascia plane block (CPB) was defined by Valdes in 2017 firstly. It may be used for postoperative analgesia after clavicle surgery. The clavipectoral fascia covers the clavicular site of the pectoralis major muscle. It provides the potential interfascial space between the clavicle and the pectoralis major muscle. CPB provide effective analgesia after clavicle surgery. It is also easy to perform. With this advantage and its analgesic effectiveness for clavicle surgery, CPB may be an alternative to interscalene brachial plexus block. However, randomized clinical efficacy trials are needed to investigate the effectiveness of CPB for clavicle fractures. In the literature, data about CPB is so limited, however it seems a good alternative to brachial plexus block for pain management after clavicle fracture

Conditions

• Clavicle Fracture
• Clavicle Injury

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Clavipectoral block	Clavipectoral block will be performed with patients in the supine position. The probe will be placed on the anterior border of the medial third (or on the proximal or distal end, according to the localization of the fracture) of the clavicle. A 22-gauge, 50 mm block needle will be inserted in a caudal to cephalic direction, the periosteum of the clavicle and the surrounding fascia will be visualized, 30 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine will be injected between these two layers. The local anesthetic spread to medial and lateral third of the clavicle will be seen.
