Conditions

• Post Operative Pain
• Anesthesia
• Nerve Block
• Shoulder Osteoarthritis

Interventions

• Interscalene Catheter
• Exparel Single Shot Interscalene Block

Primary outcomes

• Pain Score Assessed by functional pain score at POD 1 — The primary outcome will occur at 1 day after surgery date
  The primary outcome to be assessed is to determine if there is a quantitative difference in post-operative pain scores as a result of the administration of a interscalene Exparel block versus the administration of an interscalene catheter for shoulder replacement surgery. The functional pain scale is a slightly more quantifiable measure of pain used in a diverse adult population to look at functional ability with pain. The Functional Pain Scale incorporates a "0" to "5" scale, with worsening pain being registered by higher numbers.
