About this trial
this study is designed to evaluate and compare the efficacy of dexmedetomidine and nalbuphine as adjuvants to 0.5% bupivacaine in ultrasound-guided infraclavicular brachial plexus block for patients undergoing elective upper limb orthopedic surgeries on the duration of analgesia.

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Our primary outcome of this study will be: Duration of Analgesia.
Definition: The time interval (in minutes) between the completion of the infraclavicular block injection and the first request for rescue analgesia (VAS ≥ 3). Scale: Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Scale Title: Visual Analog Scale for Pain (VAS) Minimum Value: 0 (no pain) Maximum Value: 10 (worst possible pain) Interpretation: Higher VAS scores indicate worse pain, and a score of ≥ 3 indicates the need for rescue analgesia.
Secondary outcomes
Onset time of sensory and motor block
Duration of sensory and motor block
Time to first rescue analgesic request
Heart rate (HR)
