Anterior suprascapular nerve block versus interscalene brachial plexus block for arthroscopic shoulder surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials [PDF]
This systematic review aimed to compare the analgesic effectiveness and complications rates for anterior suprascapular nerve blocks (ASSB) compared to interscalene brachial plexus blocks (ISB) for arthroscopic and outpatient shoulder surgery.

Effects of Low Dose Dexamethasone as an Adjuvant to Levobupivacaine in Ultrasound-guided Interscalene Brachial Plexus Block: A Randomised Clinical Trial [PDF]
Introduction: Ultrasound-guided Interscalene Brachial (USG-ISB) plexus block is known to provide effective analgesia for upper limbs surgery. Low-dose dexamethasone as additive with levobupivacaine in USG-ISB plexus block is known to provide effective ...

Inadvertent Brachial Plexus Injury after Ultrasound-guided Interscalene Nerve Block: Diagnosis and Recovery [PDF]
Background: Brachial plexus injury subsequent to an interscalene block (ISB) can be a difficult situation. Ultrasound-guided interscalene block (US-ISB) is currently the preferred technique; however, there is conflicting evidence in the existing ...

Skin temperature after interscalene brachial plexus blockade [PDF]
Background and Objectives: In neuraxial anesthesia, increase of skin temperature is an early sign of successful block. Yet, during peripheral nerve block of the lower extremity, increase in skin temperature is a highly sensitive, but late sign of a ...

Auditory disturbance associated with interscalene brachial plexus block
We performed an audiometric study in 20 patients who underwent surgery of the shoulder region under an interscalene brachial plexus block (IBPB). Bupivacaine 0.75% with adrenaline was given followed by a 24-hr continuous infusion of 0.25% bupivacaine. Three audiometric threshold measurements (0.25-18 kHz) were made: the first before IBPB, the second 2 ...
