Study groupRoleWhat they receive
group 1 Ultrasound-guided Interscalene Block groupActive comparatorIn this group, ultrasound-guided ISB will be done using 10 ml of bupivacaine 0.25%.
Receives: Procedure: Ultrasound-guided Interscalene Block group; Drug: Bupivacaine
group 2 Combined Ultrasound guided shoulder anterior capsular block and suprascapular nerve blockActive comparator, ultrasound-guided SHAC block will be done using 10 ml of bupivacaine 0.25% injected in the interfacial plane between deltoid and subscapular muscle and 10 ml of bupivacaine 0.25% injected in the pericapsular space. Ultrasound-guided SSN block will be done using 10 ml of bupivacaine 0.25% injected at sub omohyoid space.
Receives: Procedure: Combined Ultrasound guided shoulder anterior capsular block and suprascapular nerve block; Drug: Bupivacaine

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. post operative analgesic consumption

    The first 24 hours post operative analgesic consumption

    Measured: 24 hours after surgery

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Visual Analogue score (VAS) in the first 24 hours after surgery

    • Postoperative pain intensity will be assessed in the first 24 hour using VAS score where (0 = no pain and 100 = the worst imaginable pain)

    Measured: first 24 hours after surgery

  2. Patient satisfaction score

    Patient satisfaction score will be assessed on the basis of a questionnaire and graded on a 4-point scale (excellent/good/fair/poor).

    Measured: first 24 hours after surgery

  3. The incidence of hemi diaphragmatic paralysis

    hemidiaphragmatic paralysis after block

    Measured: immediately before block and immediately after procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Ultrasound-guided Interscalene Block group, Combined Ultrasound guided shoulder anterior capsular block and suprascapular nerve block and Bupivacaine in people with Post Operative Pain, run by Tanta University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Dec 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

post operative analgesic consumption (time frame: 24 hours after surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Dec 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 30 Oct 2026.
