Shoulder Surgery Nerve Block Pain Relief Study
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This study looks at how well a single nerve-numbing injection (injected near nerves in your shoulder) works to control pain during outpatient arthroscopic shoulder surgery. Researchers want to understand your pain relief experience before, during, and after the procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having outpatient arthroscopic shoulder surgery (a minimally invasive surgery using a camera) at Toronto Western or Women's College Hospital
- You will receive a single-injection peripheral nerve block (a numbing shot near the nerves supplying your shoulder)
- You are at least 18 years old
- You can communicate in English
- You are able to understand and consent to participating in a research study
- The nerve block must work properly (you should feel numbness and be unable to move your arm in certain ways after the injection)

This trial compares two different ways of giving numbing medicine around the shoulder nerve before reverse shoulder replacement surgery. It may help find which method works better for pain control and comfort after surgery.
This study tests whether a nerve block (an injection to numb a nerve in the shoulder) can improve recovery after rotator cuff repair surgery. It is for people who recently had this surgery and have no other problems with their shoulder or health that might affect the results.
This study compares two different shoulder nerve blocks to see which one provides better pain relief after shoulder surgery while also checking how they affect your breathing. If you are having a shoulder arthroscopy, you may be eligible to help find the safest and most effective pain control option.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks for pain relief after shoulder surgery. It aims to see which block provides better pain control and recovery. If you are having shoulder arthroscopy, this study may help you have less pain after surgery.
This trial compares three different types of nerve blocks to manage pain after shoulder arthroscopy. The goal is to find which block works best for reducing pain and improving recovery.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks (one near the spine, another near the shoulder) to see which provides better pain relief after shoulder arthroscopy—a minimally invasive surgery to look inside and fix the shoulder joint.
