The aim of the study is to compare the diaphragmatic excursion and postoperative analgesia in the extrafascial versus intrafascial Interscalene brachial plexus block in patients undergoing shoulder arthroscopy.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Intrafascial interscalene brachial plexus block group | Experimental | The patients will receive 10 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine for intrafascial interscalene brachial plexus block group |
|
| Extrafascial interscalene brachial plexus block group | Experimental | The patients will receive 10 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine for extrafascial interscalene brachial plexus block group |

| Intrafascial interscalene brachial plexus block | Procedure | After sterilization of skin with povidone-iodine (betadine) and skin infiltration with 1-3ml lidocaine 1%, interscalene brachial plexus block will be performed using an ultrasound machine (Phillips Cx-50,Amsterdam, Netherlands) with a linear probe (L12-3 MHz) will be used in both groups. The US transducer will be placed under aseptic fashion on the lateral side of the neck at the cricoid cartilage level to view three hypoechoic structures, that represent the roots of the brachial plexus. The two outermost nerve roots (C5 and C6) between the anterior and the middle scalene muscles will be identified and the local anesthetic (10 ml 0.5% bupivacaine) is then injected, so that spread will be seen immediately between the C5 and the C6 nerve roots. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Incidence of diaphragmatic excursion reduction after interscalene block | The diaphragmatic excursion will be measured before the procedure (pre-block), 30 min after the block, and postoperative in Post-Anesthesia Care Unit. Hemidiaphragmatic paresis is defined as hemi-diaphragmatic excursion reduction superior to 75% compared with the pre-procedure value. | 30 min postoperative. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Efficacy of block (sensory) | The sensory block is assessed by pinprick on a score ranging from 2 to 0 scored as full sensation =2, decreased sensation =1, and loss of sensation to touch or pinprick=0. A successful block is defined as complete sensory (score= 0) in the distribution of the C5 and C6 nerve roots within 30 min of performing the Interscalene Brachial Plexus Block. | 30 minutes Postoperatively |

| Extrafascial interscalene brachial plexus block group | Procedure | Final needle tip position will be 4 mm lateral to the brachial plexus sheath, at a level equidistant between C5 and C6 roots. The distance of 4 mm is chosen according to the calculated success rate over 90% reported. the local anesthetic (10 ml 0.5% bupivacaine) is then injected |

| Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV 1) | Respiratory related outcome: pulmonary function test including forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV 1) will be assessed before block and 30 minutes after discharge to Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU) with a laboratory spirometer (Carevusion Germany Spirometer; Master screen PFT). The best value will be measured and recorded | Intraoperatively or 30 minutes postoperatively |
| Pain score using numerical rating scale (NRS) | Numerical rating scale (NRS) for assessment of pain intensity (0 = no pain) to (10 = intolerable pain), pain relief is defined as a numerical rating scale of 3 or lower. If the score is >3, the patient will need analgesia in the form of morphine 0.05 mg/kg till it decreases to ≤3. numerical rating scale will be assessed and recorded on arrival to Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU), 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 hr postoperatively by an anesthesiologist who is blinded to the study groups | 24 hours Postoperative |
| Total postoperative analgesic consumption | Total consumption of rescue analgesia in form of morphine 0.05 mg/kg/ dose will be recorded | 24 hours Postoperative |
| Peak expiratory flow (PEF) | Peak expiratory flow (PEF) will be assessed before block and 30 minutes after discharge to Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU) with a laboratory spirometer (Carevusion Germany Spirometer; Master screen PFT). The best value will be measured and recorded | Intraoperatively or 30 minutes postoperatively |
| Efficacy of block (Motor) | Motor assessment will be tested by using arm abduction (C5), and forearm flexion (C6) (incapacity to overcome gravity= 0; reduced force compared with contralateral arm =1, no loss of force =2). A successful block is defined as motor (score,=0) block in the distribution of the C5 and C6 nerve roots within 30 min of performing the Interscalene Brachial Plexus Block. | 30 minutes Postoperatively |
