Overview

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of supraclavicular and interscalene brachial plexus blocks in the patients undergoing arthroscopic shoulder surgery.

Detailed Description

This study aims to compare supraclavicular brachial plexus block to interscalene brachial plexus block with regard to degree of sensory and motor blockades, side effects and complications of the blocks, and frequency of intraoperative analgesics or antihypertensives use.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Degree of sensory blockade

Time Frame: 20 minutes after the end of local anesthetics injection

Sensory blockade of the C5 to T1 dermatomes was assessed by rating the absence of cold sensation between 100 (intact sensation) and 0 (no sensation) with an alcohol swab.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Side effects(20 minutes after the end of local anethetics injection)
  • Frequency of intraoperative analgesics or antihypertensives use(At the end of the surgery)
  • Degree of motor blockade(20 minutes after the end of local anethetics injection)
