Summary

Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is a new evolving fascial pain block in the era of regional anaesthesia. ESPB was applied in varieties of surgeries and provided an eminent role in trauma patient especially those with fracture ribs. ESPB exhibits simple, safe and easy technique with minimal or no sympathetic blockade effects, thus gaining popularity in wide range of surgeries. The optimum effective dose of local anaesthetic, the effective volume of drug used for desired dermatomes. Comparison with different regional blocks is preferable to know the optimum analgesic technique for those population of patients (4). Many studies have already compared solo ESPB with thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA), thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB), serratus anterior plane block (SAPB) and pectoral nerves block. Only few case reports described the combination effect of rhomboid intercostal, transversus thoracic muscle and parasternal plane blocks to ESPB in modified radical mastectomy.

Conditions

  • Modified Radical Mastectomy

Interventions

DRUG

Bupivacaine Hydrochloride

We hypothesize that combined ESPB and PIPB are as effective as TPVB in controlling perioperative pain in patients undergoing modified radical mastectomy (MRM) with lesser complications using bupivacaine hydrocloride

DRUG

Dexamethasone phosphate

used as additive to bupivacaine
