Summary
This study looked at 123 people having shoulder surgery to compare two types of nerve blocks: one near the neck (interscalene block) and one lower down (superior trunk block). The goal was to see which one causes less temporary breathing trouble, like diaphragm paralysis. Researchers used ultrasound and breathing tests to measure the effects. The findings help doctors choose the safer option for patients.
