- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To compare the efficacy, safety and duration of postoperative analgesia provided by shoulder block versus interscalene block using ultrasound and nerve stimulation as guidance in arthroscopic shoulder surgery.Timepoint: Postoperative pain will be evaluated at 0, 2, 4, 6, 12 and at 24 hours from the completion of surgery using VAS scoring from zero (no pain) to 10 (worst pain). .
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method â?¢To compare the total amount of rescue analgesia required in each group. <br/ ><br>â?¢To compare patient satisfaction in terms of quality of pain relief using Visual analogue scale (VAS) in relation to both the techniques. <br/ ><br>Timepoint: Time of first rescue analgesia will be noted and total amount of analgesia required will also be noted. <br/ ><br>Patient satisfaction will be assessed in terms of quality of pain relief using visual analogue scale (VAS: 0-10) at the end of 24 hours. <br/ ><br>
