Conditions
Summary
The aim of our study was to compare the effects of interscalene block alone and the combination of interscalene block and superficial cervical block on cerebral oxygenation, carotid artery diameter, intraoperative hemodynamics, laboratory parameters, clinical course and postoperative pain in patients undergoing shoulder surgery.

Interventions
After sedating the patient with 2 mg midazolam, baseline values will be obtained, and an interscalene block will be performed under ultrasound guidance. Before the block, rSO2 values of both hemispheres of the brain and carotid artery diameter (at T1 and T5 times) will be measured and recorded using a NIRS probe at T2: 5 minute(min), T3: 10 min, T4: 15 min, and T5: 20 min. To assess the quality of the block, the sensory block will be evaluated at 20 minutes. The patient will be placed in a supine position, and after the first rSO2 value is obtained at T6, rSO2 values will be recorded at T7: 10 min, T8: 30 min, T9: 60 min, T10: surgical completion, and T11: 5 min postoperatively in the supine position. Bilateral carotid diameter(mm) will be measured at T6, T10, and T11. Before any postoperative analgesia is administered, the time of the patient's first pain and their need for analgesic will be recorded.
