Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • D0 pain intensity

    Self reported pain intensity the day of surgery. Each item is scored 0-100 (0 - no pain, 100 - pain as bad as can be)

    1 day

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • D1 pain intensity

    3 days

  • morphine consumption

    5 days

  • persistence of a chronic pain

    3 months

Masking Details
The patient where randomized by the investigator after inform consent was signed The investigator prepared the syringes named "serratus" and "local" with levobupivacaine 0.25 or saline according to randomization The care provider injected the prepared syringes respectively in the serratus plane or locally without knowing their contents The outcome assessor evaluated the post operative pain and the 3 months followup without knowing the randomization
