The goal of this observational study is to define the usefulness of a new device to predict the supraclavicular block successfulness in the patients scheduled to orthopedic surgery. The main question it aims to answer is: ¿The combination between a flexometer and perfusion index is capable to predict the successfulness of a supraclavicular block in the first 15 min? Participants will be anesthetized by residents or anesthesiologist with regional anesthesia training and then connected to a flexometer to measure the motor blockade and a pulse oximeter to measure the perfusion index related to sympathetic blockage at 0, 5, 10 and 15 min .
