Brachial plexus block is a very reliable method of regional anesthesia for the upper limb. It achieves ideal operating conditions by producing complete muscular relaxation and stable intraoperative hemodynamics.However,Local anesthetics alone have a shorter duration of postoperative analgesia. Hence,various adjuvants have been added to local anesthetics to achieve quick, dense, and prolonged block. This study assess and compare the efficacy of dexamethasone or nalbuphine as adjuvants to local anesthetics in supraclavicular brachial plexus block for upper limb surgeries.
