BACKGROUND: Suprascapular nerve block (SSNB) is commonly used in @entity158 therapy for @entity1 with chronic @entity158 . The effect of SSNB on shoulder function has, however, not been investigated so far. If in shoulder function, i.e. the range of motion is increased after application of the nerve block, it can be expected that subsequent physiotherapy, besides being less painful, is also more effective in terms of restoring shoulder mobility. OBJECTIVES: Our aim was to evaluate the effect of SSNB on shoulder function, in @entity1 with chronic @entity158 . @entity1 AND METHODS: @entity1 were evaluated using the @entity9468 ( @entity9468 ) and number rating scale values for @entity158 . The SSN was blocked using the Feigl approach, with 5 ml @entity1342 0.5%. Shoulder function and @entity158 were assessed 60 minutes and 24 hours after the block. RESULTS: Totally, 20 @entity1 completed the study. The @entity9468 and @entity158 scores significantly improved after the block. CONCLUSIONS: The use of the modified lateral SSNB of Feigl significantly reduces @entity158 and increases shoulder function, in chronic @entity158 .
