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 evaluate The Effectiveness of Ultrasound Guided Modified Pectoral Nerve Block (PECS II) versus Thoracic Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESPB) for postoperative Analgesia in cases of aesthetic breast surgeries.

Detailed Description

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

Preoperative settings:

All the patients will be fasting for solid food for at least 6 hours and for clear fluids for 4 hours before surgery and will be instructed about Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) and its interpretation.

Intravenous access will be inserted, premedication with midazolam 3 mg will be done. On arrival to operating room, routine monitoring including electrocardiography (ECG), non-invasive arterial blood pressure(NIBP) and pulse oximetry will be used. The mean arterial blood pressure (MAP)and heart rate (HR) will be recorded before induction of general anaesthesia (baseline).

Intraoperative \& postoperative settings :

A prophylactic antibiotic will be given after skin sensetivity test then General Intravenous anaesthesia induction will be done. Patient inductions by Propofol (2 mg/kg), Atracurium 0.5 mg/kg and Fentanyl 1 µg/kg. Endotracheal intubation will be settled then Patients will be mechanically ventilated and ventilator parameters will be set to keep end tidal CO2 between 30-35 mmHg guided by Capnogram. Anaesthesia will be maintained with Isoflurane 1,5 to 2 vol%. Patient will be given 50% oxygen/air mixture, and Incremental doses of fentanyl (0.5µg/kg) will be given every 1 hour. The depth of anaesthesia will be adjusted to keep changes of hemodynamics; (MAP) and (HR); within the range of ±20% of the baseline.

Under complete aseptic conditions, The blocks will be performed by a consultant anesthesiologist with a 5-year of experience in regional nerve blocks.

The blocks will be performed with a 20gauge, echogenic needle (Pajunk, 120mm, Germany).

The patients will be randomly divided into two groups,then the desired block will be done.

Surgical procedure will be started after performing the desired block.

At the end of surgery, Patients will be extubated after reversal of muscle relaxant by neostigmine 0.05 mg/kg with atropine 0.02 mg/kg. Patients will be transported to Post Anaesthesia care unit (PACU). HR, systolic, diastolic and mean pressures will be observed.

Study Groups

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

PECS II group

PECS II group will receive Bilateral Modified Pectoral Nerve Block (PECS II) Group Under all aseptic precautions and sonar guided.

10 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine will be injected. Then, the needle will be advanced to the interfascial plane between the pectoralis minor and serratus anterior muscle, and 20 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine will be administered with the same procedure. The Block will be repeated on the other side using similar technique taking into consideration the toxic dose of bupivacaine.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Bilateral Modified Pectoral Nerve Block (PECS II).

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

The procedure will be done bilateral with the patient lying in the supine position and the ipsilateral arm will be abducted and externally rotated, and the elbow flexed 90°.

The block will be managed by in-plane technique. After confirming the location of the needle with 2-3 mL of saline, 10 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine will be injected. Then, the needle will be advanced to the interfascial plane between the pectoralis minor and serratus anterior muscle, and 20 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine will be administered with the same procedure. The Block will be repeated on the other side using similar technique taking into consideration the toxic dose of bupivacaine

ESP group

ESP group will receive Bilateral Thoracic Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) Group.

Under all aseptic precautions and sonar guided. We will inject 20ml of bupivacaine 0.25% into interfacial plane below to erector spinae, a manifest linear pattern will be visualized uplifting the muscle. The Block will be repeated on the other side using similar technique taking into consideration the toxic dose of bupivacaine

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Bilateral Thoracic Erector spinae plane block (ESPB).

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Under all aseptic precautions and sonar guided, ESP block will be managed at T4 or T5 bilateral using a high-frequency linear ultrasound probeWe will inject 20ml of bupivacaine 0.25% into interfacial plane below to erector spinae, a manifest linear pattern will be visualized uplifting the muscle. The Block will be repeated on the other side using similar technique taking into consideration the toxic dose of bupivacaine.
