Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
- Duration of the sensitive block (minutes).<br><br>The patients were evaluated in 4 moments postoperatively: in the PACU (post-anesthetic recovery room), 4, 12 and 24 hours after the procedure, when the patient was discharged. The duration of the sensory blockade (in minutes) was evaluated by means of a test with cotton soaked in alcoholic solution. The sensation of touch or temperature in the shoulder region was questioned and in case of a positive response in at least one of the two, it was considered to be the end of the sensory blockade. If they had presented pain complaints during the evaluation interval, this moment was considered as the end of the sensory blockade. The end of the injection of the local anesthetic solution was considered the zero moment to evaluate the duration of the blockade. An extension of at least 50% of the duration of the sensory blockade was expected according to previous studies.
