Shoulder Block for Pain Relief After Rotator Cuff Surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests a special numbing injection (shoulder block) to see how well it controls pain after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. If you are having this type of shoulder surgery and are generally healthy, this trial may help you recover with less pain.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
