The association between anesthesia type and postoperative outcomes in patients receiving primary total shoulder arthroplasty

With the recent trends toward outpatient shoulder surgery, standardized protocols for perioperative analgesia are critical for reducing length of stay and optimizing outcomes. There are a variety of described anesthetic and analgesic options for shoulder surgery, and the literature is variable regarding optimal choice as patient, provider, and institutional factors often play a role. With general anesthesia alone becoming less utilized, regional methods require critical examination. Knowledge of the differing, and novel, regional anesthetic procedures in conjunction with recent orthopaedic and anesthetic literature is imperative to providing patients with optimal and efficient care.
