Official title: Comparison Between Ultrasound Guided Erector Spinae Plane Block and Paravertebral Block on Acute and Chronic Postmastectomy Pain

Read the detailed description

Management of postoperative analgesia following breast surgery extending beyond a simple lumpectomy can sometimes be a challenge, especially when such surgery is being performed as a day-case procedure. Patients undergoing mastectomy have a very high possibility of developing postsurgical pain syndrome, as high as 20% to 50%.There has been some evidence to suggest regional analgesia techniques reduce the incidence of postsurgical pain in patients undergoing mastectomy. This underlines the importance of performing regional anaesthetic and analgesic techniques for postoperative analgesia following breast surgery.There are many techniques of regional analgesia as thorasic epidural block , paravertebral block , PECS1 block ,PECS2 block , and recently erector spinae plan block.Paravertebral blocks have superseded thoracic epidurals when it comes to choice of a regional anaesthesia technique to provide analgesia for breast surgery.The injection of local anaesthetic solution in the paravertebral space results in a unilateral block, which is sensory, motor, and sympathetic. The uptake of the local anaesthetic solution is enhanced due to the absence of fascial sheaths binding the spinal nerves.TPVB produces ipsilateral somatic and sympathetic nerve blockade due to a direct effect of the local anesthetic on the somatic and sympathetic nerves in the TPVS, extension into the intercostal space laterally, and the epidural space medially. Ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane (US-ESP) block is a novel analgesic technique, in which local anaesthetic is injected into fascial plane deep to erector spinae muscle. It is possible to block the dorsal and ventral rami of the spinal nerve depending on the level of injection and amount of local anaesthetic injected. Erector spinae block (ESP) leads to effective post-operative analgesia where it is performed at T4-5 level for breast cancer and thoracic surgery , when performed bilaterally it has been reported to be as effective as thoracic epidural analgesia.The drug spreads in craniocaudal fashion over several levels as the erector spinae fascia extends from nuchal fascia cranially to the sacrum caudally. Forero et al. recently described US-ESP block for thoracic neuropathic pain. This block could be effective in both acute post-operative thoracic and abdominal surgeries and also neuropathic pain in these regions.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ultrasound guided erector spinae plane block with bupivacaine 0.25% And ultrasound guided Paraveretebral block with bupivacaine 0.25 %Procedure or surgery

    One groupvwill receive 0.25% bupivacaine (20 ml ) into interfascial plane below erector spinae muscle at level of T4 and the other group willreceive (0.3 ml /kg ) 0.25% bubivicaine divided equially at each level of T2 , T4 and T6 at thoracic paravertebral space .

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. analgesic requirement

    Total morphine consumption during first 24 hours post operatively.

    Measured: 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. stress response

    Effect on stress response: serum level of cortisol and noradrenaline (immediately preoperative, after intubation, immediately postoperative, and after 24 hours postoperative)

    Measured: 24 hours

  2. Chronic post mastectomy pain

    Chronic post mastectomy will be assessed at pain clinic at 1st, 3rd, 6 th month postoperatively using (LANSS ) score .

    Measured: 6 month

A study testing ultrasound guided erector spinae plane block with bupivacaine 0.25% And ultrasound guided Paraveretebral block with bupivacaine 0.25 % in people with Comparison Between Ultrasound Guided Erector Spinae Plane Block and Para-vertebral Block on Acute and Chronic Post Mastectomy Pain, run by South Egypt Cancer Institute 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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Oct 2023. 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.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04498234, 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?
