A Comparison of ESP Block to SSN Block for Analgesia in Shoulder Surgery

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgery
Interventions
Other: Block procedures for shoulder surgery analgesia
Registration Number
NCT04669639
Lead Sponsor
Zagazig University
Brief Summary

A comparison between Erector Spinae Plane block and Suprascapular nerve block in providing analgesia for shoulder surgery

Detailed Description

Suprascapular nerve block is considered a phrenic nerve sparing approach that recently introduced as alternative for interscalene brachial plexus nerve block in shoulder surgery. However, some researchers reported that Suprascapular nerve block alone results in an ineffective analgesia. Erector Spinae Plane block is supposed to be able in providing adequate analgesia in shoulder surgery

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Intraoperative analgesiaThe intraoperative patients' hemodynamics every 30 min were collected and analyzed till the end of surgery . Also the total dose of opioids consumed intraoperatively will be recorded. Postoperative consumed opioid for 24 hours also will calculated

Recording of the patients' hemodynamics (heart rate and non-invasive blood pressure) and total dose of opioids consumption intraoperatively and postoperatively.
