Modified PENG plus SSNB vs Interscalene block for Bankart and Latarjet surgery

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

In this randomized, single-center study, adults undergoing elective Bankart or Latarjet procedures under general anesthesia are assigned to either a Modified PENG block with SSNB or an Interscalene block to manage postoperative pain. The primary outcome is pain intensity on the Visual Analog Scale at 24 hours after surgery. Secondary outcomes include opioid use, time to first rescue analgesia, functional recovery, range of motion, and the incidence of block-related adverse events such as respiratory issues, motor weakness, Horner syndrome, hoarseness, and local anesthetic toxicity. The study aims to determine if the Modified PENG/SSNB approach can achieve analgesia comparable to ISB while potentially reducing complications. Thirty-five patients per group (70 total) will be enrolled at Cairo University’s Kasr Al-Ainy Hospital, with assessments during the first 24 postoperative hours and follow-up per protocol.
