Shoulder Arthroscopy, Pain
Intravenous Dexamethasone on Supraclavicular Brachial Plexus Block for Shoulder Arthroscopy
Previous studies have confirmed that IV dexamethasone prolongs brachial plexus blocks. However, these studies only used fixed doses of IV dexamethasone at relatively high doses, which could potentially lead to increased glucose…
