Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to compare the effect of ultra-sound guided serratus anterior plane block versus conventional IV analgesics in postoperative pain management in modified radical mastectomy (MRM)

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

All patients undergoing modified radical mastectomy were assigned to one of the following two groups:Group A: Serratus anterior plane block group (SAPB group): this group consists of 20 patients who received ultra sound guided serratus anterior plane block just after induction of anesthesia and Group B: IV analgesics group (control group): this group consists of 20 patients who did not receive any type of block.Further evaluations were carried out by a different investigator who was unaware of the patients' grouping. The degree of post-operative pain was assessed at: just upon arrival to the PACU, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours using the VAS score and the haemodynamic data and respiratory rate were measured during the first 24 hours after the end of the surgery. Postoperative analgesia regimen was standard in both groups; patients from each groups received 1 gm of Paracetamol Q 8 hours.

Patients reporting VAS ( visual analogue score) score greater than 40, mean arterial blood pressure, heart rate or respiratory rate \>20% from the baseline, were given Pethidine (50 mg IV) as rescue analgesic. While, those reporting VAS score less than 40 with mean arterial blood pressure, heart rate or respiratory rate \>20% from the baseline but still complaining; Ketoralac (30 mg IV) was given with a maximum dose of 120 mg/ day.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Group A ( SAPB) group

this group of patients receives serratus anterior plane block, just after induction of anesthesia.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

ultrasound guided serratus anterior plane block

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

the patients receive local anesthetic (20 ml of Bupivacaine 0.25 %), injected superficial to the serratus muscle under ultrasound guidance.

Group B: control group

this group of patients does not receive any blockade, they receive conventional IV analgesics.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group
