About this study

Official title: Anterior Glenoid Nerve Block Versus Pericapsular Nerve Group (PENG) Block Versus Interscalene Brachial Plexus (ISB) Block for Postoperative Pain Management in Shoulder Arthroscopic Surgeries

This study aims to compare between Anterior glenoid nerve block, pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block and Interscalene brachial plexus (ISB) block for post-operative pain management in shoulder arthroscopic surgeries

Read the detailed description

Major surgeries of the shoulder constitute some of the most commonly performed orthopedic procedures. They often result in moderate to severe postoperative pain thereby requiring a multimodal analgesic approach centered around peripheral nerve blocks.

Postoperative pain management is the part of shoulder surgery to improve patient satisfaction, start rehabilitation process rapidly and decrease for hospital stay.

Interscalene blocks (ISB) are well-studied and established means of providing analgesia following shoulder surgery and are considered the gold standard mode of regional anesthesia and post-operative pain management in shoulder surgeries.

A novel technique: pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block can be effectively and safely applied under ultrasound guidance in shoulder surgery cases for postoperative analgesia. In addition, PENG block targets articular branches with less motor effect compared with interscalene brachial plexus block providing anesthetic and analgesic effect with less complication and better and sooner ambulation.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Time to the 1st rescue analgesia

    Time to the first request for the rescue analgesia (time from the end of surgery to the first dose of pethidine administrated).

    Measured: 24 hours postoperatively

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Total pethidine consumption

    All patients will receive intravenous pethidine (30mg) on demand [Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score ≥3].

    Measured: 24 hours postoperatively

  2. Degree of pain

    Degree of pain will be assessed using visual analogue scale (VAS). Each patient will be instructed about postoperative pain assessment with the VAS. VAS (0 represents "no pain" while 10 represents "the worst pain imaginable"). VAS will be assessed at 0, 6, 12, and 24 hours postoperatively.

    Measured: 24 hours postoperatively

  3. Length of hospital stay

    Length of hospital stay will be recorded from admission till the discharge from hospital.

    Measured: Till discharge from hospital (Up to one week).

  4. Time needed for the patient to freely move the operated limb

    Time needed for the patient to freely move the operated limb will be recorded.

    Measured: Postoperatively (Up to one week).

  5. Degree of patients satisfaction

    Degree of patient satisfaction will be assessed on a 5-point Likert scale patient satisfaction (1, extremely dissatisfied; 2, unsatisfied; 3, neutral; 4, satisfied; 5, extremely satisfied)

    Measured: 24 hours postoperatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Interscalene brachial plexus block, Anterior glenoid nerve block and Pericapsular nerve group block in people with Anterior Glenoid Nerve Block and Pericapsular Nerve Group Block, run by Ain Shams University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Jan 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Mohamed Serry, Master (00201002609476, mohamed.serry@med.asu.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Time to the 1st rescue analgesia (time frame: 24 hours postoperatively). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Jan 2025.
