    AbstractTo explore the early clinical value of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) with interscalene brachial plexus block (ISB) for arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR). We enrolled 240 patients who underwent arthroscopic rotator cuff repair, randomly divided into 3 groups (n = 80 each). Groups A, B, and C underwent only surgery, surgery + ERAS, and ISB + surgery + ERAS, respectively. We analyzed the clinical data and postoperative indicators for the 3 patient groups. Group comparisons of clinical data and postoperative indicators revealed no significant differences in clinical characteristics (P > .05). Group C showed superior Visual Analog Scale scores at 0-6 and 6-24 hours postoperatively (P < .05), and the shortest length of hospital stay (LOS) (P < .05). At 6 weeks and 3 months postoperatively, Constant-Murley shoulder score and University of California-Los Angeles scores were better in Groups B and C than in Group A (P < .05). Joint swelling was more common in Group A than in Groups B and C (P < .05) but with no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative stiffness (P > .05). ERAS can relieve postoperative pain, shorten LOS, and help restore shoulder joint mobility, thereby reducing postoperative swelling. ISB + ERAS optimized pain control and allowed a shorter LOS, but had similar effects on early functional recovery and complications.Copyright © 2023 the Author(s).
