Dexketoprofen given by IV to see if it reduces rebound pain after shoulder block

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

Patients undergoing rotator cuff repair receive an interscalene block and general anesthesia, then are given either standard postoperative analgesia or the same plus intravenous dexketoprofen to see if rebound pain and overall pain are reduced. The trial monitors pain scores, block efficacy, and need for rescue analgesia within the first 24 hours post-surgery. Rebound pain is defined as severe pain (VAS ≥ 7) after the block wears off, roughly 8–12 hours post-block. The study uses a standardized anesthetic protocol and includes adult patients aged 18–70 without significant renal impairment or NSAID contraindications. Primary outcomes focus on incidence and severity of rebound pain and overall analgesic consumption.
