(From Braun.) tablished in from one to three minutes; occasionally, however, itmay require a longer delay, from ten to fifteen minutes; failure toobtain anesthesia by this time usually indicates the need of anotherpuncture, when 5 to 10 of a 4 per cent, solution is used in thesame manner, except that the paresthesia in the extremity does notoccur unless the first injection has gone wide of the mark; should thefirst injection fail, the second is not near so likely to succeed (Fig. 32). In the hands of Kulenkampff and his associates, who injected alarge number of cases in this way, very few failures were recorded. The duration of the anesthesia is from one-half hour to threehours, and is associated with complete muscular relaxation of thepart. 222 LOCAL ANESTHESIA Paraneural Injection Within the Axilla.—The arm is abducted toa right angle, the index-finger of one hand is passed up on the outer --j.
