Abstract: Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of suprascapular nerve block in combination with infusion of anesthetic into the subacromial space, compared with interscalene block. Methods: Forty-five patients with small or medium-sized isolated supraspinatus tendon lesions who underwent arthroscopic repair were prospectively and comparatively evaluated through random assignation to three groups of 15, each with a different combination of anesthetic methods. The efficacy of postoperative analgesia was measured using the … Show more

“…At 24 hours postoperatively, no significant difference was noted in pain control between patients who received SSNB versus controls (SMD, –0.20; 95% CI, –0.60 to 0.20; P = .32; I 2 = 61%) (Figure 3C). 21,23,30,37,38,47 These results indicate that SSNB is efficacious at improving pain control compared with control treatments in the early postoperative period; however, the effect may abate beyond 24 hours postoperatively.…”

“…Three of these studies 23,38,47 found significantly reduced postoperative pain scores in the SSNB group compared with controls, while the remaining 3 studies 21,30,37 reported no significant difference. Pain control within 1 hour postoperatively was compared in 5 studies, 21,30,37,38,47 with significantly reduced pain identified in the SSNB groups (SMD, –0.76; 95% CI, –1.45 to –0.07; P = .03; I 2 = 84%) (Figure 3A). Five studies 21,30,37,38,47 compared pain control between 4 and 6 hours postoperatively, reporting significantly improved pain control in the SSNB groups (SMD, –0.81; 95% CI, –1.53 to –0.09; P = .03; I 2 = 85%) (Figure 3B).…”
