Clinical Trial: Minimum Effective Volume of Bupivacaine for Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plane Block in Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery

U.S., March 4 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07446959) titled 'Minimum Effective Volume of Bupivacaine for Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plane Block in Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery' on Feb. 26.

Brief Summary: This study aims to determine the minimum effective volume of bupivacaine required for the serratus posterior superior intercostal plane (SPSIP) block in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). The SPSIP block is an ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia technique used to provide postoperative pain relief after thoracic surgery.

Using a stepwise dose-adjustment method, the volume of local anesthetic will be increased or decreased based on the effec...
