Summary

To compare the effects of 1.33% liposomal bupivacaine versus 0.375% bupivacaine hydrochloride for superior trunk block of the interscalene brachial plexus on postoperative diaphragmatic function and analgesic efficacy in shoulder surgery.

Conditions

  • Proximal Humerus Surgery
  • Rotator Cuff Surgery
  • Shoulder Arthroplasty
  • Shoulder Arthroscopy

Interventions

DRUG

Liposomal bupivacaine

The superior trunk was visualized distal to the convergence of the C5 and C6 nerve roots but proximal to the take-off of the suprascapular nerve. The block needle was advanced in-plane to the ultrasound beam in a lateral-to-medial direction under the deep cervical fascia and superficial to the middle scalene muscle, until the needle tip was immediately adjacent to the lateral border of the superior trunk. 1.33% Liposomal bupivacaine 10ml was injected.
