The use of ultrasound is a technique of growing interest in regional anesthesia, since it has allowed the direct visualization of the nerves, the needle, the adjacent structures and mainly the control of the local anesthetic distribution in real time. The regional anesthesia guided by ultrasound is totally dependent on the operator, it requires anatomical knowledge, management of the technique, prevention of the complications of the approach and the solution of them in case they appear. In this review we will focus on the revision of brachial plexus blocks commonly used for anesthesia and perioperative analgesia, with a count of classic approaches and recently published approaches, the benefits of its use, complications, significant volume reduction, latency and practicality in the technique. It includes descriptive images, comparative Tables with doses, duration of postoperative analgesia (full version and videos visit http://www.painoutmexico.com).

Palabras llave : Regional upper limb anesthesia; regional blocks of upper limb guide by ultrasonography.
