Time of language onset and frequencies of speech and language problems were examined in stutterers and their nonstuttering siblings. These families were grouped according to six characteristics of the index stutterer: sex, recovery or persistence of stuttering, and positive or negative family history of stuttering. Stutterers and their nonstuttering same-sex siblings were found to be distributed identically in early, average, and late categories of language onset. Comparisons of six subgroups of stutterers and their respective nonstuttering siblings showed no significant differences in the number of their reported articulation problems. Stutterers who were reported to be late talkers did not differ from their nonstuttering siblings in the frequency of their articulation problems, but these two groups had significantly higher frequencies of articulation problems than did stutterers who were early or average talkers and their siblings.

Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness and side effects, complications of interscalene brachial plexus block with a nerve stimulator for clavicular fracture surgery. Materials and Methods:In a prospective descriptive study, fifty patients received interscalene brachial plexus block for fixation of clavicle fracture. The dose was 7 mg/kg of 1% lidocaine mixed with 1 : 200000 adrenaline. Results:The success rate was 94%, including 4% of patients needed sedation and small amount of narcotic, failure rate was 6%. The minimal stimulating current of the nerve location was 0.46 ±0.08 mA, the onset time of sensory block was 8.86 ±2.65min. There were 3 complications with one Horner’s syndrome and two hoarsenesses. Conclusion:We found that in patients undergoing fixation of clavicle fracture the interscalene block with a nerve stimulator was an effective anesthetic with a low rate of side effects and complications. Key words:Interscalene block, nerve stimulator, clavicular fracture surgery.
