Primary outcomes
pain intensity
measured by Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) 10 cm line labelled (0-10), in which 0 presents no pain and 10 represents the worst pain in each participant

Secondary outcomes
Assessment of Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI)
SPADI contains 13 items that assess two domains - a five item subscale that measures pain and an eight item subscale that measures disability. Each subscale scored 10 ranging from 0 (best) to 10 (worst). It is a self administered, valid questionnaire,
Total amount of rescue analgesia
Total amount of rescue analgesia (ibuprofen)
patient's satisfaction
degree of satisfaction of the analgesia by using a 5-points likert-like verbal scale (1 = very dissatisfied analgesia, 2 = dissatisfied analgesia, and 3 = neutral, 4=satisfied analgesia, and 5=very satisfied analgesia)
Complications of SHAC block
Complications of SHAC block (local anesthetic toxicity, infection, bleeding)
