Magnesium with shoulder block for pain relief after shoulder surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests whether adding magnesium sulfate to the standard nerve block can improve pain relief after shoulder arthroscopy. It aims to reduce pain and improve recovery after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study compares two types of nerve blocks for pain relief after arthroscopic shoulder surgery. The goal is to find out which provides better pain control with fewer side effects.
This study tests whether adding a steroid medicine (dexamethasone) to a nerve block helps control pain better after arthroscopic shoulder surgery. The nerve block uses a sedative (dexmedetomidine) to numb the shoulder area, and the steroid may make the pain relief last longer.
This study tests whether adding an anti-inflammatory medicine (dexamethasone) to a numbing nerve block gives better pain relief after shoulder surgery. If you qualify, you might have less pain and need fewer painkillers after your operation.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks to see which provides better pain relief after shoulder arthroscopy. The blocks are given before surgery to reduce pain during recovery.
This study compares two ways of numbing the shoulder with nerve blocks to see which one provides better pain relief after shoulder surgery. You would receive one of the two nerve-block techniques before your surgery to help manage pain afterward.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks to reduce pain after shoulder surgery. One block is placed near the neck (interscalene) and the other is placed further away (serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block). The goal is to see which works better and has fewer side effects.
