"6-10mL of local anaestheticbupivacaine 0.25% is a common choice"
"Using an in-plane technique, the needle is inserted as parallel as possible to the ultrasound beam, from posterolateral to medial. The needle is advanced through the skin and platysma under real-time guidance until just short of the plexus. Following aspiration to ensure the needle tip is not within a vascular structure, hydrodissection is used to confirm the optimal anaesthetic placement, and 10 mL of local anaesthetic administered in ~2 mL aliquots should proceed until linear spread across the deep margin of the SCM is acheived."
