A Comparative Pulmonary Function Study of Continuous Supraclavicular, Suprascapular, and Interscalene Nerve Catheters After Total Shoulder Arthroplasty
This study is designed to evaluate lung function and pain control of continuous
supraclavicular versus suprascapular versus interscalene nerve catheters in subjects
undergoing total shoulder replacement. The investigators hypothesize that all three groups
would have similar pain control; the supraclavicular and suprascapular groups may have
better lung function.
