What participants receive

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

  • Pectoral nerve (PECS) block -transversus thoracic plane (TTP) blockProcedure or surgery

    Patients will receive unilateral US-guided PECS II block and TTP block on the side of the operation after induction of general anesthesia.

  • Serratus anterior plane (SAP) blockProcedure or surgery

    Patients will receive US-guided SAP block after induction of general anesthesia.

What is being measured

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

  1. The total amount rescue analgesic consumption (morphine) in the first 24 hours postoperatively.

    Rescue analgesia in the form of morphine (3mg IV) will be given if the VAS is ≥ 40, repeated with lock out interval of 5 min guided with the occurrence of complications till the VAS is decreased to less than 40.

    Measured: First 24 hours postoperatively.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. The degree of postoperative pain

    Postoperative pain will be assessed by Visual Analog scale (VAS) on admission to Post-Anesthesia Care unit (PACU) and at 30 minutes and then 1,2,4,6,12,18 and 24 hours postoperative.

    VAS (0-100; where 0 represents no pain and 100 represents the worst pain).

    Measured: First 24 hours postoperatively.

  2. Time to first rescue analgesia request.

    Rescue analgesia in the form of morphine (3mg IV) will be given if the VAS is ≥ 40, repeated with lock out interval of 5 min guided with the occurrence of complications till the VAS is decreased to less than 40.

    Measured: First 24 hours postoperatively.

  3. Intraoperative fentanyl consumption.

    Additional boluses of fentanyl 0.5 µg /kg will be administered in case of inadequate analgesia that defined as increase of heart rate (HR) and /or mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) more than 20 % from baseline

    Measured: Intraoperative

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Pectoral nerve (PECS) block -transversus thoracic plane (TTP) block and Serratus anterior plane (SAP) block in people with Ultrasound-Guided and Transeversus Thoracic Plane Blocks, run by Tanta University 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 6 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 29 Nov 2022. 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?

The total amount rescue analgesic consumption (morphine) in the first 24 hours postoperatively. (time frame: First 24 hours postoperatively.). 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 29 Nov 2022.
