Summary

The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness of analgesia of US guided MTP block in pediatrics undergoing thoracotomy.

Conditions

  • Ultrasound Guided Block
  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Analgesia

Interventions

DRUG

Bupivacaine

Before skin incision, under complete aseptic precautions and sterilization, the patient will be placed in a lateral position. The spinous process of the fourth thoracic vertebra will be identified and marked. The ultrasound guided MTP block will be done by high frequency linear transducer will be placed in position just lateral to the spinous processes of thoracic vertebra target of the paravertebral space. A 50 mm 22-gauge echogenic needle will be inserted in an in plane technique from a caudal to a cephalad direction and will be advanced. When the needle tip reaches the midpoint between the transverse process and the pleura, 1 ml normal saline will be injected. Once the needle tip has been confirmed and after careful aspiration to demonstrate the absence of air or blood, 0.5mL/kg 0.25% bupivacaine will be injected.
