Resumen
El bloqueo del nervio supraescapular es una técnica relativamente fácil y segura de realizar que incorporada al arsenal terapéutico del reumatólogo es una herramienta más para el tratamiento del hombro doloroso de distinta etiología cuando han fracasado otros tratamientos (analgésicos, antiinflamatorios no esteroideos, fisioterapia e infiltraciones intraarticulares de anestésicos locales y glucocorticoides).
Palabras clave:
Nervio supraescapular
Bloqueo
Hombro doloroso
Abstract
Suprascapular nerve block is a safety and relatively easy tecnique that should be incorporated to the therapeutic arsenal of the rheumatologists. When other techniques such as painkillers, NSAIDs, physiotherapy and infections had failed to treat shoulder pain, this technique should be used.
Key words:
Suprascapular nerve
Block
Shoulder pain
