Brief Summary

Postoperative analgesia after breast cancer surgery is a challenge for anesthesiologists due to the complex innervation of the breast. Interfascial plane blocks of the chest are gaining widespread popularity with the introduction of ultrasonography into the regional anesthesia practice. We aimed to investigate the efficacy of Rhomboid intercostal and subserratus plane block (RISS) for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing breast cancer surgery.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Postoperative opiod consumption

    Opioid consumptions for both group will be recorded.

    The first 24 hours postoperatively

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Postoperative pain scores

    The first 24 hours postoperatively

Study Arms (2)

Group Rhomboid Intercostal and Subserratus Plane Block

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

In addition to routine standard perioperative and postoperative analgesic protocol participants will recieve Rhomboid Intercostal and Subserratus Plane Block under ultrasound guidence at the end of the surgery.

Drug: Rhomboid Intercostal and Subserratus Plane Block with local anesthetic

Control Group

NO INTERVENTION

Routine standard perioperative and postoperative analgesic protocol will be given.

Interventions

Local anesthetic will be injected in the tissue planes between the rhomboid and the intercostal muscles and the serratus anterior and external intercostal muscles with ultrasound guidence.

Also known as: 40 mL of bupivacaine/lidocaine mixture
