NCT04135157

Brief Summary

This study evaluates the analgesic effects of pectoralis nerve block (PECS II) and erector spinae plane block (ESP) in patients having segmental mastectomy and sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB). Each one-third of patients will have ESP block and pectoralis nerve block (PECS II) 30 min before general anesthesia , while other one-third of patients will have only general anesthesia.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Opioid consumption in the first 24 hours after surgery

    Morphine consumption in the first 24 hours will be counted by IV PCA. Patients will be able to request opioids via PCA device when the vas score is 4 points or more when the arm is in the resting position.

    1 day

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Post-operative acute pain

    1 day

  • Remifentanil consumption during the surgery

    During the surgery

  • The incidences of post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV)

    1 day

  • The number of patient required rescue analgesia

    1 day

  • Post-operative chronic pain

    3. month after surgery

Other Outcomes (1)

  • The time of first analgesic demand from the PCA device.

    1 day

Study Arms (2)

PECS II or ESP

EXPERIMENTAL

PECS II or ESP block are performed 30 minutes before general anesthesia. PCA is used for all the patients in the first 24 hours postoperatively.

Procedure: Pectoralis nerve block IIProcedure: Erector spine plane block

Control

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

In the control group, patients will have only general anesthesia. PCA is used for all the patients in the first 24 hours postoperatively.
