Summary

Regional techniques can be used for postoperative pain control following VATS. Ultrasound (US) guided serratus posterior superior block (SPSPB) is a new interfacial plane block defined by Tulgar et al in 2023. It is based on injection on the serratus posterior superior muscle at the level of the 2nd or 3rd rib. This block provides analgesia in conditions such as interscapular pain, chronic myofascial pain syndromes, scapulocostal syndrome, and shoulder pain. The SPS muscle is located at the C7-T2 level. It attaches to the lateral edges of the second and fifth ribs. It is innervated by the lower cervical and upper intercostal nerves. With the SPS block, these nerves are blocked and analgesia is provided.

Patients will be administered ibuprofen 400 mgr IV every 8 hours in the postoperative period. A patient-controlled device prepared with 10 mcg/ ml fentanyl will be attached to all patients with a protocol including 10 mcg bolus without infusion dose, 10 min lockout time, and 4-hour limit. If the NRS score is ≥ 4, 0.5 mg kg-1 iv meperidine will be administered as a rescue analgesic. Postoperative patient evaluation will be performed by an anesthesiologist blinded to the procedure.
