About this study

An observational study of paired cohorts, not randomized, was designed with the aim of comparing the postoperative analgesic effectiveness of two regional analgesic techniques: the shoulder anterior capsular block associated with the suprascapular nerve block performed via an anterior approach versus the suprascapular and axillary nerve blocks performed posteriorly in patients with shoulder surgery via arthroscopy in procedures that cause intense postoperative pain.

Treatment and study plan

Shoulder Arthroscopy

Procedure

Shoulder arthroscopy in procedures that cause intense postoperative pain

Primary outcomes

  1. Postoperative pain

    Time frame: The measurement of pain intensity according to the numerical rating scale at preoperative and at the 1st, 2nd, 12th ant 24th postoperative hours

    The measurement of pain intensity according to the numerical rating scale (NRS) from 0 (absence of pain) to 10 (maximum pain endured)
