No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) has been reported to reduce postoperative pain scores and opioid consumption after postoperative. This study aims to evaluate the effect of TENS application on recovery quality after interscalene block for shoulder surgery.

Conditions

  • Quality of Recovery

Interventions

DEVICE

Placebo-Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS)

Patients will receive 2 mg midazolam and 50 ug fentanyl for sedation before the block procedure. Each patient will be positioned appropriately, then a high-frequency linear array transducer (13-6 MHz) will be placed in the interscalene region to define the brachial plexus on the short axis. Under sterile conditions, 50 mm block needle will be advanced through the interscalene groove. After localization and negative aspiration, 15 ML of 5% bupivacaine drug will be injected into the interscalene area. The control group will also receive the TENS-pants electrodes, connected to TENS treatment. In the placebo-TENS applications on the painful area, 2 channels with 4 electrodes in the acute period will be applied. However, the TENS treatment to the control group will be set so that no electricity will reach the patient. A multimodal analgesia regimen will be applied postoperatively
