Pain Management, Total Shoulder Arthroplasty
Conditions
Keywords
ZYNRELEF, Total shoulder arthroplasty
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to determine if local intra-operative application of ZYNRELEF (topical medication) during shoulder replacement surgery improves pain control (as defined by opioid consumption after surgery) compared to the use of an interscalene block with catheter. This is a randomized clinical trial without blinding. Subjects will complete patient reported outcomes before and after surgery. Subjects will track their narcotic use, pain scores and pain satisfaction after surgery.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Narcotic consumption | From surgery to two-weeks following surgery | Narcotic consumption measured in morphine equivalent units (MEU) |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Pain management cost | Perioperative | Total cost of the interscalene single shot block plus Zynrelef compared to the cost of the block plus catheter with pain pump |
| Pain management administration | Perioperative | Time needed by the anesthesiologists to perform the blocks in both groups. |
