Shoulder Adhesive Capsulitis and Ambulatory Continuous Interscalene Nerve Blocks

NCT00875862 · Status: TERMINATED · Phase: PHASE4 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 4

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Research study to determine if putting local anesthetic through a tiny tube next to the nerves that go to the shoulder will improve shoulder range-of-motion following the shoulder procedure performed on the frozen shoulder. It will also help determine if patients have a higher quality-of-life and less pain, require fewer pain pills, experience fewer sleep disturbances, and are more satisfied with their post-procedure pain control.

Conditions

  • Adhesive Capsulitis
  • Post-operative Pain

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Interscalene catheter with Ropivicaine or normal saline

Patients will be randomized to one of two groups: 0.2% Ropiviciane or normal saline in the infusion pump, following a shoulder manipulation for adhesive capsulitis. The patients will be followed by doctors and study staff to assess pain, range-of-motion and quality-of-life.
