No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The study will test the hypothesis that inflammatory markers measured at 24 hours after breast cancer surgery will be lower in patients receiving PECS II and PIFB blocks, supplemented with dexmetomidine compared to standard care group.

Conditions

  • Inflammatory Markers

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Modified pectoralis block (PEC II) and pecto-intercostal fascial plane block (PIFB)

PECS II: Ultrasound guided block involving injection of 20 ml of 0.25% L-bupivacaine with dexmetomidine into an interfascial plane between the serratus anterior muscle and the external intercostal muscles followed by the needle withdrawal into an interfascial plane between the pectoralis major and pectoralis minor muscle where further 10ml will be administered. PIFB: Ultrasound guided block involving injection of 10 ml of 0.25% L-bupivacaine with dexmetomidine into an iterfascial plane between the pectoralis major and the intercostal muscles approximately 2 cm laterally from the sternum to cover T2 to T6 dermatomes.
