Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The primary outcome is to compare the time from patient admission to the start of general anesthesia between the catheter pre-insertion group and the catheter pre-insertion group as a control group to determine whether catheter pre-insertion contributes to operating room efficiency.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
As a secondary outcome, we would like to examine whether catheter preinsertion is disadvantageous to patients by comparing the use of remifentanil, an analgesic used during surgery, the postoperative resting shoulder pain numerical rating scale (NRS), and the rate of catheter reinsertion. The results of this study will be presented at the end of the study. In addition, we would like to compare the time of leaving the operating room before and after pre-catheter insertion in shoulder joint surgery patients, and to examine whether the overtime hours of medical staff could be reduced.
