Brief Summary: The study aims to evaluate the postoperative analgesic effect of combined shoulder anterior capsule SHAC block with suprascapular nerve block SSNB versus Interscalene block ISB during the first 24 hours following shoulder surgery
Detailed Description: Significant acute postoperative pain is common in adults after shoulder surgery with approximately 45 reporting severe pain in the immediate postoperative period This pain may necessitate opioid use for several days The opioid requirement may be similar to that following gastrectomy or thoracotomy and opioid-only analgesic techniques for shoulder surgery are commonly associated with opioid-related adverse effects such as nausea vomiting respiratory depression pruritus allergic reactions sleep disturbance and constipation

With the majority of these procedures being performed in the ambulatory setting providing effective postoperative analgesia has become paramount in promoting quicker recovery and rehabilitation of these patients Thus alternative techniques are preferred Nowadays several ultrasound guided regional anesthesia methods are used for postoperative analgesia

The shoulder is formed by two joints the acromioclavicular joint formed by the acromion process of the scapula and the clavicle and the glenohumeral joint formed by the glenoid process of the scapula and the humeral head

The shoulder joint is innervated by branches of the brachial plexus which include the suprascapular nerve the axillary nerve the subscapularis and lateral pectoral nerves

The suprascapular nerve arises from the ventral rami of cervical nerve roots C5 and C6 and it is a branch of the superior trunk of the brachial plexus The suprascapular nerve is a mixed motor and sensory nerve providing motor innervation to the supraspinatus and infraspinatus muscles And sensory innervation to the acromioclavicular joint glenohumeral joint and ligaments of the shoulder The axillary nerve also originates from the ventral rami of C5 and C6 and it is a terminal branch of the brachial plexus The axillary nerve is a mixed motor and sensory nerve providing motor innervation to the deltoid and sensory contributions to the glenohumeral joint Other nerves involved in the sensory innervation of the shoulder joint include the nerve to subscapularis and the lateral pectoral nerve both of which arise from ventral rami of C5 and C6

Cutaneous innervation is also important to consider in performing regional anesthesia The cutaneous innervation of the shoulder is provided by branches of the brachial plexus with minor contributions from thoracic nerve roots The supraclavicular nerve arises from cervical 3 and 4 nerve roots and provides cutaneous innervation to the cape of the shoulder The axillary nerve provides cutaneous innervation over the lateral aspect of the shoulder

Interscalene block which anesthetizes C5 and C6 nerve roots is the gold standard regional anesthesia technique for shoulder surgery but it carries a risk of ipsilateral phrenic nerve block and hemidiaphragmatic paralysis which limit its use in patients with preexisting pulmonary compromise Less common complications included respiratory distress weakness of the arm hoarseness of voice Horners syndrome and brachial plexus neuropathy rebound pain and pneumothoraxTherefore selecting the most appropriate brachial plexus block method is crucial to achieve effective pain control avoid complications

Various diaphragm-sparing alternatives to interscalene blocks have been studied Among them is the suprascapular nerve block SSNB which accounts for about 70 of the sensory innervation of the shoulder Consequentially it has been suggested that the SSNB will deliver adequate analgesia for shoulder surgery but sometimes does not provide adequate analgesia because the axillary nerve the lateral pectoral nerve and sometimes the musculocutaneous nerve also contribute to the complex innervation of the shoulder joint

By combining the SSNB with a recently described new block the shoulder anterior capsular block SHAC the investigator can reach all our targets The SHAC is the combination of two different blocks The first block is via the interfacial space between the deep layer of the deltoid fascia and the superficial layer of the subscapularis fascia anterior to the subscapularis myotendinous junction we can block both the axillary nerve and the subscapular nerves the lateral pectoral nerve and the musculocutaneous nerve Second block Pericapsular nerve group block PENG which is based in permeable spaces between the three glenohumeral ligaments as potential gateways For example it was suggested that deep pericapsular infiltration of local anesthetic towards the subscapularis may cover the axillary and subscapularis branches that feed the anteroinferior and superior quadrants of the glenohumeral joint by injecting the pericapsular space reaching the terminal articular branches indistinctly from their origin
