Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The main outcome is static pain at 30 minutes after arrival in the post anesthesia care unit (PACU) as measured by a numerical rate scale (NRS) from 0 to 10. Our research hypothesis is that interscalene and costoclavicular infraclavicular blocks will result in equivalent postoperative analgesia at 30 minutes in the PACU. The equivalence margin is set at 2 points.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Interscalene Block
Patients randomized to receive an intesrcalene block.
Interscalene Block
Injection with ultrasound guidance of 20mL of levobupivacaine 0.5% with 5 micrograms of epinephrine per mL in the interscalene groove of the brachial plexus.
Costoclavicular Infraclavicular Block
Patients randomized to receive a costoclavicular infraclavicular block.
Costoclavicular Infraclavicular Block
Ultrasound guided brachial plexus block injecting 20mL of 0.5% levobupivacaine with 5 micrograms of epinephrine per mL in between the cords of the brachial plexus at the costoclavicular infraclavicular space.
