Clinical Trial: Postoperative Opioid Consumption of Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plane Block Versus Thoracic Paravertebral Block

U.S., May 30 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07613697) titled 'Postoperative Opioid Consumption of Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plane Block Versus Thoracic Paravertebral Block' on May 22.

Brief Summary: Previous studies found that paravertebral and thoracic epidural continuous infusions of opioid-free local anaesthetic were found to be comparable, but paravertebral analgesia (PVA) was associated with less respiratory complications and hypotension. The newly emerging Serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block (SPSIPB) provided excellent analgesia in most studies that have focused on video-assissted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) and breast surgery. The aim of this clinical trial...
