No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of this study is to assess analgesic efficacy of a supraclavicular nerve block, suprascapular nerve block, or interscalene nerve block in a population undergoing shoulder arthroscopy with rotator cuff repair. The investigators hypothesize that subjects from all three arms will receive equal analgesia since these blocks are routinely performed to treat post-operative pain after shoulder surgery.

Conditions

  • Pain, Postoperative
  • Pain
  • Shoulder Joint
  • Pathologic Processes

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Brachial plexus nerve block

All arms of the study comparing the three different blocks are receiving the same single injection bolus of ropivacaine 0.5% prior to surgery. We will then record and compare pain scores in PACU and opioid requirement.
