Dose Response Study of Dexamethasone in Combination With Bupivacaine 0.25% in Ultrasound Guided Supraclavicular Brachial Plexus Nerve Block, a Randomized, Placebo Controlled Prospective Clinical Trial

University of Pennsylvania·interventional·Posted Sep 24, 2012·Updated May 4, 2017

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Bupivacaine 0.25%, Dexamethasone, and 1 other intervention for Post Surgical Pain. Completed, enrolled 89 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

When used in conjunction with a local anesthetic, dexamethasone may prolong both the sensory and motor effects of high supraclavicular brachial plexus nerve block (SBP) in arthroscopic shoulder surgery. This study seeks to determine if there is a relationship between the duration of sensory and motor blockade in supraclavicular brachial plexus nerve blocks (SBP) when combined with increasing doses of dexamethasone.
