Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

An observational study of paired cohorts, not randomized, was designed with the aim of comparing the postoperative analgesic effectiveness of two regional analgesic techniques: the shoulder anterior capsular block associated with the suprascapular nerve block performed via an anterior approach versus the suprascapular and axillary nerve blocks performed posteriorly in patients with shoulder surgery via arthroscopy in procedures that cause intense postoperative pain.
