NCT04457557

Brief Summary

The rebound pain after nerve block could interfere with patient's recovery and rehabilitation. It is not known how local anesthetic concentrations affect rebound pain. The aim of this study is evaluation of the effect of local anesthetic concentration on rebound pain after interscalene block for shoulder surgery.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Rebound pain score

    It is calculated by subtracting the visual analogue scale (VAS) of pain at the last time when the nerve block was effective from the highest VAS for 12 hours from the time when the nerve block effect disappeared. VAS of pain: 0=no pain \~ 10=very severe pain

    48 hours after surgery

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • total postoperative fentanyl dose

    48 hours after surgery

  • fentanyl bolus injection time

    48 hours after surgery

  • Subjective satisfaction

    48 hours after surgery

Study Arms (2)

Low concentration

EXPERIMENTAL

Interscalene block with 0.15% ropivacaine 15 ml

Other: Reduced concentration of local anesthetic (ropivacaine)

Usual concentration

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Interscalene block with 0.5% ropivacaine 15 ml

Other: Usual concentration of local anesthetic (ropivacaine)

Interventions

Reduced concentration of ropivacaine We usually use 0.5% ropivacaine in our facility. The intervention group used 0.15% ropivacaine 15 ml

Low concentration

0.5% ropivacaine 15ml

Usual concentration
