Minimum Effective Volume of Local Anesthetic for Ultrasound-Guided Supraclavicular Brachial Plexus Block
Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine, 05/15/09

Duggan E et al. - In this study, the minimum volume required for US-guided supraclavicular block in 50% of patients was 23 mL, and in 95% of patients was 42 mL.
