About this study

The incidence of breast cancer is among women world wide, detection increased with introduction of mammography as a screening tool. surgical resection of breast cancer contributes to the generation of acute and chronic post mastectomy pain. This study aims at comparing the effect of erector spinae block versus serratus block versus intravenous morphine in patients undergoing modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer surgeries regarding pain control and possible side effects

Read the detailed description

One of the most common types of cancer affecting women is breast cancer. Surgical resection is one of the main approaches applied for solid tumors. surgical approach for breast cancer involve the breast region. Various analgesic modalities are used for proper perioperative pain control. Morphine has always been considered as the gold standard analgesic, however opioids have multiple side effects. Several loco-regional techniques have been introduced for breast surgery pain management including serratus plane block (SPB) and erector spinae plane (ESP) block. In this study the investigators are comparing the effect of erector spinae block versus serratus block versus intravenous morphine in patients undergoing modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer surgeries regarding intraoperative and postoperative analgesia, time to first analgesic, any possible side effects

Study groups in NCT04248608
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
erector spinae blockExperimentalUltrasound guided erector spinae block with will be done after induction of intravenous anesthesia. After identification of trapezius, rhomboid major, and erector spinae muscles. The needle will be inserted in a cephalad-to-caudal direction until the tip contact transverse process and the needle tip is visualized in the plane deep to the erector spinae muscle. The needle tip position is confirmed by visualizing linear spread of test dose between the muscles after injection. A total dose of 25 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine will be injected.
Receives: Procedure: erector spinae block
serratus anterior blockExperimentalUltrasound guided serratus anterior block will be done after induction of intravenous anesthesia. The serratus anterior, latissimus dorsi, and the intercostal muscles will be identified in the fourth and fifth intercostal level, an 18 G Tuohy needle will be advanced in the plane between the serratus anterior muscle and the intercostal muscles. A total dose of bupivacaine 25ml in a concentration of 0.25% will be administered under the serratus muscle after a test dose using an in-plane technique.
Receives: Procedure: serratus plane block
intravenous morphineActive comparatorintravenous morphine will be administrated in a dose of 0.1 mg per kg after induction of general anesthesia
Receives: Drug: Morphine Sulfate

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing serratus plane block, erector spinae block and Morphine Sulfate in people with Analgesia, run by National Cancer Institute, Egypt at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Jul 2020. 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 Egypt. 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?

Visual analogue score (time frame: 24 hours). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04248608, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 21 Jul 2020.
