简要总结
Rib fractures are seen in more than 50% of patient spresenting with blunt chest trauma and are associated with significant morbidity, long-term disability and mortality .
Many of these adverse consequences are a result ofinadequately controlled pain which hinders respiration,leading to atelectasis, pneumonia and respiratory failure .
The early provision of adequate analgesia is thereforeparamount in the management of these patients. The cornerstones of analgesic management are oral andintravenous medications such as paracetamol, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatorydrugs(NSAIDs) and opioids.
Nevertheless, in patients with more significant injuries orcomorbidities, interventional procedures are often neededto provide adequate analgesia and avoid opioid-relatedadverse effects .
详细描述
Paravertebral block (PVB), through injecting a local anaesthetic agent close towhere the spinal nerves exit the intervertebral foramina, can provide high quality ipsilateral, segmental, somatic, and sympathetic nerve blockad.
PVB is a successful regional method for amelioration of pain in patients undergoingesophagectomy, breastsurgery, thoracotomy, cardiacsurgery,hepatectomy,percutaneusnephrolithotomyand nephrectomy .Thoracic paravertebralblock(TPVB) has also been used for pain reliefof multiplerib fractures ( MRFs).
Rhomboid intercostal and sub-serratus block (RISS) is an alternative block for multiple rib fractures.
The rhomboid intercostal block was first described in 2016 . The region described is known as the triangle of auscultation that is bounded medially by inferior part of the trapezius, inferiorly by the superior border oflatissimusdorsi, and laterally by the medial border of the scapula. In this ultrasound-guided block, the local anesthetic drug is administered between the rhomboid major and the intercostal muscle fascia at the level of T6-T7 and provides analgesia of T3-T8 dermatomes .
Elsharkawy et al. described a modification to the rhomboid intercostal block to expand dermatomal coverage fromT2-T11 dermatomes. They describe theRISS (Rhomboid Intercostal and Sub-Serratus) block that is a twoinjection block of both the rhomboidintercostal and sub-serratusspace. After the first injection, theultrasound probe advances caudally and laterally distal to the inferior angle of the scapula, the second injection apply between the serratus and intercostal muscle fascia.

结局指标
主要结局
The visual analog scale (VAS)
时间窗: 3 days
The visual analog scale (VAS) will be used to assess pain severity and control. VAS is a simple assessment tool consisting of a 10-cmline, where 0=no pain at all, 1-2=mild pain intensity,3-5=moderate pain intensity, 6-8=severe pain intensity, and 9-10=worst pain was felt.(22)
Pulmonary function test FEV1 by using Hand-held spirometry
时间窗: 3 days
Spirometry is the most frequently used measure of lung function and is a measure of volume against time . The spirometer will be used to measure pulmonary function tests namely; FEV1 .Forced expiratory volume (FEV1) measure show how much air a person can exhale in a forced breath during the first second.
