Overview

Brief Summary

Shoulder arthroscopy is one of the frequently performed surgical procedures today. After shoulder surgery, ensuring sufficent analgesia is necessary for both the patient's comfort and for the early and regular performance of the required postoperative rehabilitation exercises. Nerve blocks provide better pain control, opioid consumption in the postoperative period, and consequently have advantages such as fewer side effects and lower risks of pulmonary and cardiac complications. Multimodal analgesia approach is preferred for patients undergoing shoulder arthroscopy. Along with intravenous analgesic agents, peripheral nerve blocks (applied to every suitable and consenting patient) are performed based on patient preference. This study aims to compare the analgesic efficacy in the postoperative period of patients undergoing shoulder arthroscopy with a combination of interscalene brachial plexus block and superficial cervical plexus block with serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block.

Arms & Interventions

Serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block

With the patient in the prone position the skin is disinfected .Linear USG probe is placed on the spine of the scapula using an in-plane technique and moved medially. The 3rd rib is identified just on the medial scapular border. After visualizing the trapezius, rhomboid major, and serratus posterior superior muscles (from top to bottom) under USG guidance, a 22-G X 80-mm block needle is directed caudally and advanced until it contacted the rib. To confirm and obtain a plane between the serratus posterior superior and intercostal muscles, hydrodissection is performed using 2 ml of isotonic solution. After the needle site is confirmed, 30 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine is injected ; the local anesthetic spread is confirmed by USG.

Intervention: Serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block

Interscalene brachial plexus block and superficial cervical plexus block

İBPB:While the patient is in the supine position, the ultrasound probe is placed on the cricoid cartilage and moved laterally to visualize the trachea, thyroid, carotid artery, internal jugular vein, and sternocleidomastoid muscle. The brachial plexus is identified by directing it posteriorly and laterally between the anterior and middle scalene muscles. After entering between the roots using the in-plane technique and confirming the location with a 2 ml isotonic sodium injection, 20 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine is injected. SCPB:While the patient is in the supine position, the ultrasound probe is placed at the midpoint of the sternocleidomastoid (SCM) muscle. The cervical plexus is visualized deep to the posterior border of the SCM muscle. The needle is inserted deep to the SCM, directed towards the levator scapula. After confirming the location with a 2 ml isotonic sodium injection, 10 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine is injected.

Intervention: Interscalene brachial plexus block and superficial cervical plexus block
