Abstract
Aim: Postoperative pain management is important because shoulder surgery causes severe pain. In this present study our aim was to analyse the comparison of the influences of ultrasonography-guided interscalene block and perioperative intra-articular local anesthetic injection on postoperative pain in cases who will undergo arthroscopic shoulder procedure.
Material and Method: It was planned as a prospective randomized controlled trial. After the confirmation of the local ethical committee, our cases were randomly divided into two groups and one group (Group ISBPB) was administered general anesthesia after ultrasonography guided interscalene block. In the other group (Group LA), surgical procedure was carried out under general anesthesia and a single dose of intra-articular local anesthetic was administered peroperatively. Postoperative analgesia requirement, time, VAS scores, patient and surgeon satisfaction were registered.
Results: We could not obtain a statistically significance between group LA and group ISBPB groups according to gender, side, comorbidity, additional procedure and age variables in the participants included in the study (p>0.05). A numerically significance was observed between Group LA and Group ISBPB groups in terms of first analgesia requirement and patient satisfaction variables in the participants included in the study (p
