Clinical Trial Summary
Ultrasound-guided Clavipectoral fascial plane block versus ultrasound-guided superficial
Cervical plexus block in patients undergoing fracture clavicle operation
Description:
The clavipectoral fascial plane block (CPB) is a novel regional anesthesia technique that has
been utilized for clavicular fracture surgery. It has been hypothesized that the CPB is an
effective regional anesthesia technique for peri-operative analgesia since the terminal
branches of many of the sensory nerves like suprascapular, subclavian, lateral pectoral, and
long thoracic nerves pass through the plane between the clavipectoral fascia and the clavicle
itself.
The ultrasound-guided superficial cervical plexus (SCP) block may be useful for providers in
emergency care settings who care for patients with ear, neck, and clavicular region injuries,
including clavicle fractures and acromioclavicular dislocations. The SCP originates from the
anterior rami of the C1-C4 spinal nerves and gives rise to 4 terminal branches (greater
auricular, lesser occipital, transverse cervical, and suprascapular nerves) that provide
sensory innervation to the skin and superficial structures of the anterolateral neck and
sections of the ear and shoulder.
