About this trial

This prospective randomized controlled study aims to compare the effects of interscalene block, infraspinatus-teres minor interfascial plane block, and a control group on postoperative analgesia and diaphragmatic function in patients undergoing shoulder arthroscopy. A total of 120 patients will be enrolled and allocated into three groups. Postoperative pain scores, opioid consumption, rescue analgesic requirements, and diaphragmatic function will be evaluated and compared among the groups. The study seeks to determine whether the infraspinatus-teres minor interfascial plane block can provide effective postoperative analgesia with less impact on diaphragmatic function compared with interscalene block.

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Ultrasound-Guided Interscalene Block

    Procedure/Surgery

    Ultrasound-guided interscalene brachial plexus block is performed before induction of anesthesia for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing shoulder arthroscopy. The block is administered using ultrasound guidance according to institutional practice.

  • Ultrasound-Guided Infraspinatus-Teres Minor Interfascial Plane Block

    Procedure/Surgery

    Ultrasound-guided infraspinatus-teres minor interfascial plane block is performed before induction of anesthesia for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing shoulder arthroscopy. The block is administered using ultrasound guidance according to institutional practice.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Postoperative Pain Intensity

Postoperative pain intensity assessed using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) , ranging from 0 to 10, where 0 indicates no pain and 10 indicates the worst imaginable pain. higher scores indicate greater pain intensity. compared between study groups.

Time frame
0, 2,4, 6, 12, and 24 hours after surgery
2

Diaphragmatic Excursion

Comparison of postoperative diaphragmatic excursion measured by ultrasonography between study groups.

Time frame
24 hours after surgery
