Summary

The aim of this study is to assess analgesic efficacy of a supraclavicular nerve block, suprascapular nerve block, or interscalene nerve block in a population undergoing shoulder arthroscopy with rotator cuff repair. The investigators hypothesize that subjects from all three arms will receive equal analgesia since these blocks are routinely performed to treat post-operative pain after shoulder surgery.

Conditions

Interventions

TypeNameDescription
PROCEDUREBrachial plexus nerve blockAll arms of the study comparing the three different blocks are receiving the same single injection bolus of ropivacaine 0.5% prior to surgery. We will then record and compare pain scores in PACU and opioid requirement.
