Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to to compare the post-anesthetic recovery time to awake consciousness and hemodynamic and ventilatory capacities for discharge from the Post-Interventional Monitoring Room in patients admitted for shoulder rotator cuff arthroscopy (using local anesthesia versus general anesthesia + local anesthesia).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
length of stay in the Post-Interventional Monitoring Room
The primary endpoint is the length of stay in the Post-Interventional Monitoring Room from discharge from the operating room to an Aldrete score \> 8 leading to discharge from the Post-Interventional Monitoring Room.
Day 0
Study Arms (2)
Locoregional anesthesia
EXPERIMENTALpatients will benefit from locoregional anesthesia alone by means of an interscalene block of the brachial plexus.
Locoregional anesthesia + general anesthesia
ACTIVE COMPARATORpatients will benefit from general anesthesia as well as locoregional anesthesia via an interscalene block of the brachial plexus.
Interventions
minimally invasive surgical procedure in which a camera (arthroscope) is inserted into the shoulder joint
