Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of interscalene brachial plexus block versus combined suprascapular and axillary nerves block for shoulder arthroscopy. Methods: In this prospective study 174 patients were operated on the shoulder joint by the arthroscopic method under combined anesthesia. In the 1st group (n=96), for the purpose of analgesia, patients got interscalene brachial plexus block; in the 2nd group (n=78), patients received suprascapular and axillary nerves block. Ultrasound visualization and neurostimulation were used in both groups. Recorded the time from the start of blockade to the start of the operation, as well as the duration of the sensory and motor blockade. The intensity of postoperative pain was assessed with a 10-point Numeric rating scale, the need for additional analgesia, the quality of night sleep, and patient comfort. Neurological complications were also recorded. Results: There were no differences in the time from the admit patients to the operating room and before the start surgery. The analgesic effect in the early postoperative period in the 1st group was higher, but by the end of the first day there was no statistical difference between the groups in the intensity of the pain syndrome. Intake of non-narcotic and narcotic analgesics was higher in the 2nd group. Complications were noted only for the 1st group: diaphragm paresis in 6 (6.25%) patients, in 2 (2.08%) recurrent laryngeal nerve blockade. Satisfaction with postoperative analgesia was 100% in patients of the 2nd group. The choice of regional anesthesia for arthroscopic interventions on the shoulder did not affect the length of hospitalization. Conclusion: Selective anesthesia of the suprascapular and axillary nerves during shoulder arthroscopic surgery is an alternative of interscalene brachial plexus block; it is not associated by respiratory and neurological complications; does not violate movements in the distal upper limb, reduces psychological discomfort and anxiety of patients.

Összefoglaló. A thoracoabdominalis aortakirekesztés okozta gerincvelő ischemia súlyos neurológiai következményeit számos klinikai és kísérleti tanulmány bizonyítja. E nehezen kiszámítható, súlyos szövődmény megelőzésének érdekében régi törekvés megfelelő intra- és posztoperatív monitorizálás kifejlesztése, ami előre jelzi a gerincvelő-funkció romlását, illetve a kialakuló celluláris károsodást. A legelterjedtebb, a klinikai gyakorlatban széles körben alkalmazott megoldás a gerincvelői kiváltott motoros potenciál (MEP) folyamatos ellenőrzése. Ritkábban alkalmazott – bár ígéretes – eljárás a biokémiai változások nyomon követése, ami a sejtszintű károsodás markereit használja fel az ischemia okozta változások felismerésére. Korábbi dolgozatunkban kutyákon végzett kísérleteink azon eredményeit ismertettük, amelyekben a 60 perces thoracoabdominalis aortakirekesztés okozta neurológiai változások és a perfúzió adatainak összefüggéseit tárgyaltuk. Jelen tanulmányunkban a gerincvelői motoros (MEP) és szenzoros (SEP) kiváltott potenciálok változásait vizsgáljuk a neurológiai végállapot vonatkozásában. Megállapítottuk, hogy SEP változásai a neurológiai károsodás mértékével értékelhető összefüggést nem mutatnak. A MEP-amplitúdó és -latencia értékei biztonsággal jelzik a fenyegető gerincvelő ischemiát. A neurológiai deficit mélységét (Tarlov 2,1,0) a MEP-értékek változásai numerikusan nem értékelhetően követik. Summary. Severe neurological complications of the thoracoabdominal aortic clamping were published in numerous clinical and experimental studies. These hardly predictable, devastating consequences demanded to develop a monitoring system which might detect impending level of spinal cord ischemia in time – in order to introduce or enhance protective procedures and prevent permanent neurological deficit. The most widely used monitoring in clinical practice is the continuous surveillance of the motor evoked potentials (MEP) during and after thoracoabdominal aortic clamping. Much less used, but promising opportunity is to control the metabolic changes and cellular integrity utilizing specific markers like liquor lactate and neuron specific enolase (NSE) etc. In our earlier study we published data of our canine experiment related to coherencies between neurological outcome and specific perfusion of the spinal cord during and after one hour thoracoabdominal aortic clamping. In the present paper we investigate the behavior of motor evoked (MEP) and sensory evoked (SEP) potentials related to neurological changes. We conclude the behavior of SEP values hardly correlate with the neurologic outcome, meanwhile decrease of MEP amplitude provides reliable signal for developing spinal cord ischemia. We could not confirm a numeric correlation of these data and the level of the final neurologic outcome.
