About this study
Official title: Erector Spinae Plane Block Versus Thoracic Paravertebral Block on Postoperative Pain for Video Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery
Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESPB) is a newly described and effective interfascial plane block for thoracic and abdominal surgery. It was first described by Forero et al. in 2016, effectiveness being reported in four cases. The paravertebral block has been successfully used in various surgical patient groups for purposes of anesthesia or postoperative pain management such as thoracotomy, breast surgery and abdominal surgery. The aim of this study is to compare the analgesic effects of erector spinae plane block and paravertebral block in patients undergoing video assisted thoracoscopic surgery.

Single shot 20 ml 0.25 bupivacaine
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| ultrasound guided erector spinae plane block | Active comparator | ultrasound guided erector spinae plane block with 20 ml %0.25 bupivacaine Receives: Drug: Bupivacaine Hcl 0.25% Inj |

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Postoperative opioid consumption
First 24 hours total fentanyl consumption with patient controlled analgesia
Measured: First 24 hours
Secondary outcomes (2)
Visual analog pain score
Post operative pain will be evaluated with a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score of 0-10 (0= no pain and 10= worst imaginable pain)
Measured: postoperative 0-24 hours
Block performing time
The block time was defined as the period between the insertion of the needle and termination of local anesthetic administration
Measured: First hour

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 May 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Postoperative opioid consumption (time frame: First 24 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 May 2019.
