About this study

Official title: Continuous Ultrasound Guided Erector Spinae Plane Block vs Thoracic Paravertebral Block for Postoperative Analgesia in Patients Undergoing Thoractomy

in this study the investigators will investigate and compare the analgesic efficacy of two techniques (continuous TPVB and continuous ESPB) in relieving thoracotomy pain

Read the detailed description

General Anesthesia will be induced with Fentanyl (1-2 μg/kg), Propofol (2-3 mg/kg), and Atracurium (0.5-0.8 mg/kg). Pressure controlled Volume guarantee Ventilation mode will be used to maintain O2 Saturation Above 98% and End tidal co2 Around 30-35 mmHg. Anesthesia will be maintained with Isoflurane 1.2 Minimum Alveolar Concentration inhalation after induction Group A: Patients will receive Loading dose of 20 ml 0.25% bupivacaine then continuous infusion U/S-Guided TPVB of 5 ml/h of 0.125% bupivacaine started through the catheter before the surgical procedure intraoperative and Group B: Patients will receive Loading dose of 20 ml 0.25% bupivacaine then continuous U/S-Guided ESPB of 5 ml/h of 0.125% bupivacaine started through the catheter before the surgical procedure intraoperative.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing continuous Thoracic paravertebral block and continuous Erector spinae plane block in people with Postoperative Pain, run by Amal Gouda Elsayed Safan 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 7 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 26 Jan 2024. 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?

Compare the VAS score postoperative of (U/S)-guided continuous (ESPB) to continuous (TPVB) following thoracotomy (time frame: 48 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 26 Jan 2024.
