Detailed description

Suprascapular nerve block is an injection method that has been shown to be effective in shoulder rehabilitation in diseases such as adhesive capsulitis and stroke .Applying the block under USG guidance instead of blinding increases the effectiveness and reduces complications There are many studies in the literature on suprascapular, axillary, and interscalene nerve blocks in early pain management after shoulder arthroplasty. All of these focus on pain in the perioperative or early postoperative period. There is a study on USG-guided suprascapular nerve block. In this study, unlike the studies in the literature, it was aimed to show the effectiveness of USG-guided suprascapular nerve block in the subacute rehabilitation process of patients.

Conditions

• Rotator Cuff Tears
• Pain
• Nerve Block
