The Open Orthopaedics Journal 6 Sept 2013 RESEARCH ARTICLE DOI: 10.2174/1874325001307010323

Abstract

There has been an exponential growth in the volume of shoulder surgery in the last 2 decades and a very wide variety of anaesthetic techniques have emerged to provide anaesthesia and post-operative analgesia. In this article we examine current opinion, risks, benefits and practicalities of anaesthetic practice and the provision of post-operative analgesia for shoulder surgery.

Keywords: interscalene block, local anaesthetics, regional anaesthesia, shoulder surgery.
