No results posted yet for this study

Summary

1. Interscalene continuous catheter is a very effective way of controlling pain in total shoulder arthroplasty. To ensure proper placement, nerve stimulating catheter is quite often used.
2. Ultrasound can help proper placement of catheter without relying on nerve stimulation.
3. The plan of the study is to compare two techniques head to head to see if they are equally effective or one is better than others.
