Abstract
When fascial layers are present in the neurovascular sheath, they impede the spread of injectate during infraclavicular brachial plexus block. Ultrasound detection of these fascial layers is unreliable in cadavers. These findings support the use of greater volumes of injectate or a multiple injection technique when performing this block.
