Ultrasound-guided Erector Spinae Plane Block Versus Paravertebral Block for Perioperative Analgesia in Patients Undergoing Open Splenectomy

Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Analgesia
Interventions
Drug: conventional analgesia
Procedure: ultrasound guided erector spinae plane block
Procedure: ultrasound guided paravertebral block
Registration Number
NCT05448469
Lead Sponsor
Ain Shams University
Brief Summary

There are very few randomized controlled trials in open splenectomy surgery, which compare paravertebral block with ESP block. The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the efficacy of ultrasound-guided paravertebral block with ESP block for perioperative analgesia in open splenectomy .

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
First time to analgesic requirement1st 24 hour

all patients received an IV -PCA system (Accufuser M8P, 60 mL; Woo Young Meditech Co, S.Korea). PCA was prepared with 60 mL of isotonic saline containing 60 mg morphine, and the selected system was adjusted to infuse a 1 mL bolus dose with a lockout interval of 15 minutes while the basal flow rate was switched off. Breakthrough pain was managed with 2mg morphine.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
total analgesic consumption1st 24 hour

The total dose of rescue analgesics(morphine) required in 24 hours will be recorded.

Numerical rating scale (NRS)1st 24 hour

All patients will be monitored in the postoperative period for pain by the NRS score at rest and movement at immediate postoperative (0 min), 30 min, 1, 2, 6,12, and 24 hours.
