NCT ID NCT07668648
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 30, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study compares two types of nerve blocks for pain after arthroscopic shoulder surgery. The standard block can sometimes cause temporary diaphragm paralysis. The newer block aims to provide similar pain relief with fewer risks. Eighty adults undergoing shoulder surgery will be randomly assigned to receive one of the two blocks, and their pain levels and opioid use will be tracked for 24 hours.

What this could lead to
If this trial succeeds, it could point toward a safer, equally effective pain-blocking method for shoulder surgery, reducing complications like diaphragm paralysis.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial (80 participants) comparing two procedures. The newer block may not prove as effective, and results may not apply to all patients.
