Summary

The purpose of the study is to evaluatethe effects of rhomboid intercostal block( RIB ) on postoperative pain after thoracoscopic surgery compared with local anesthetic infiltration ( LA )

Conditions

  • Anesthesia

Interventions

OTHER

Rhomboid intercostal plane block or Local anesthetic infiltration of 0.25% Bupivacaine

for RIB GroupThe following structures will be identified from superficial to deep: trapezius muscle, rhomboid major muscle, intercostal muscles between ribs, pleura, and lung. The tissue plane between the rhomboid major and intercostal muscles will be identified. A 18 gauge Tuohy needle will be advanced in plane from a superomedial-to-inferolateral direction, through the trapezius and rhomboid major muscles. The skin entry point for the first injection will be the T5-T6 level just medial to the scapula. After the location is confirmed through hydrodissection of 3 ml on the upper intercostal muscles under the rhomboid major muscle, 20ml of bupivacaine (concentration 0.25%) is injected under rhomboid major muscle LA group will receive wound infiltration of VATS incision single-incision with 10mL 0.25% bupivacaine double-incision with 15 mL (10mL+5mL) 0.25% bupivacaine three-port strategy with 17 mL (10mL+5mL+2mL) 0.25% bupivacaine
