Registration Number
NCT05796778
Lead Sponsor
Minia University
Brief Summary

Shoulder surgery can be very painful surgery after which the use of opioids is often required. The well-known side-effects of opioids (e.g. respiratory depression, somnolence, nausea, vomiting, and pruritus) limit their use in so called 'fast track' surgery and anaesthesia programmes.

the study aimed to compare the effect of sub omohyoid suprascapular nerve block versus interscalene nerve block in preventing postoperative pain and decreasing analgesic consumption in patients scheduled for shoulder surgery
