NCT05791539
Post-thoracotomy pain is a challenging clinical problem that may be associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The current study tests two techniques of regional anaesthesia to control post thoracotomy pain
NCT04258436
This is a single-center, randomized, prospective study evaluating the effect of serratus anterior plane block performed after induction of anesthesia, but before the start of surgery on postoperative opioid requirements. The hypothesis of the study is that serratus anterior plane blocks are relatively simple to perform, provide good postoperative analgesia, facilitate early tracheal extubation, and reduce the length of hospital stay after pediatric cardiac surgery through a thoracotomy.
NCT04531553
The thoracic epidural block (TEB) and thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) are the most commonly used techniques for analgesia after thoracic surgery.Recently, erector spinae plane block (ESPB) was reported as a treatment for thoracic neuropathic pain.Dexmedetomidine has been primarily used for intra- venous sedation in intensive care settings. The unique analgesic properties of dexmedetomidine have encouraged the anesthesiologists to use it perineurally. This study aims to evaluate the effect ultrasound erector spinae plane block with dexmedetomidine infusion in management of acute and chronic post thoracotomy pain.
NCT05379816
The investigators investigate the prevalence of PTPS in patients receiving with uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS), and early identify neuropathic pain as well as treated with neural protective strategy to target intercostal nerve.
NCT04189120
Pain after thoracotomy is known to be sever acute pain that is resulted from retraction, resection or fracture of ribs .This pain increases post operative morbidity and if not properly managed peri-operatively, chronic post thoracotomy pain syndrome may develop. Different methods are described to manage post thoracotomy pain.Thoracic epidural analgesia is believed to be the corner stone in the peri-operative care for thoracotomy providing the most effective analgesia. Serratus anterior plane (SAP) block has recently been described as a regional anesthetic technique to provide analgesia for thoracic wall surgeries. During SAP block, local anesthesia are deposited in the fascial plane either superficial to the serratus muscle or deep to the serratus anterior muscle in the mid-axillary line . Serratus anterior block provides analgesia to a hemithorax by blocking the lateral branches of the intercostal nerves. This study aims To compare the effect of superficial, deep serratus plane blocks and thoracic epidural analgesia in maintaining hemodynamic and controlling post thoracotomy pain.
NCT04415242
The investigators want to be able to show a 66% decrease in the incidence of shoulder pain in the "support" group compared to the "suspension" group.
NCT02619513
The purpose of this study is to explore the effectiveness of dexmedetomidine as an adjunctive analgesic, used in ultrasound-guided continuous thoracic paravertebral blocks for Post-thoracotomy Pain Syndrome(PTPS).
