Özet

Objective Ultrasound-guided infraclavicular nerve block (IB) has become a well-established meth-od in several outpatient procedures; however, its use in emergency departments (EDs) remains limited. The aim of this study was to compare procedural sedation and anlagesia (PSA) and IB in the pain management for patients who underwent forearm fracture reduction in the ED.
