Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Nerve blocks applied with ultrasonography are currently used for many post-operative pain and operations. Providing adequate area analgesia is the primary goal of clinicians, as early mobilization is suggested after shoulder and arm surgery.

In this study aimed to investigate the effect of superior trunk block application on postoperative analgesic and motor functions.
