Regional Anesthetic and Analgesic Techniques for Clavicle Fractures and Clavicle Surgeries: Part 1-A Scoping Review.

ABSTRACT: Objective. Clavicle fractures are common injuries potentially associated with significant perioperative pain.

A scoping review was carried out in accordance with the Joanna Briggs Institute's framework. All articles describing the use of RA for clavicle fractures or surgery were included. PubMed^®, Ovid MEDLINE^®, EMBASE^®, Scopus^®, CINAHL^®, and the Cochrane database were searched without language restrictions. Results. Database searches identified 845 articles, 44
