Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Pain score

    Wong-Baker Faces Pain Rating Scale is used

    Pain score measured when communication is possible between 10 and 30 minutes after entering the recovery room.

  • Pain score

    Numeric rating scale is also evaluated if communication is possible

    Pain score measured when communication is possible between 10 and 30 minutes after entering the recovery room.

Secondary Outcomes (10)

  • Pain score

    Pain score for 1 hour, 3 hours, and 24 hours after leaving the recovery room

  • Pain score

    Pain score for 1 hour, 3 hours, and 24 hours after leaving the recovery room

  • Additional narcotic analgesics administered

    Within 24 hours of the end of surgery

  • Additionally administered non-narcotic analgesics

    Within 24 hours of the end of surgery

  • Side effects related to pain medication

    Within 24 hours of the end of surgery

  • +5 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Selective supraclavicular nerve block

EXPERIMENTAL

After induction of anesthesia, the anesthesiologist sterilizes the skin of the area to be punctured. In the test group, an Ultrasound-guided selective supraclavicular nerve block is performed using 0.5% Ropivacaine 0.1mL/kg (Maximum dose: 5mL).

Drug: Ropivacaine

Control

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The nerve block is not performed in the control group.

Other: Control (without intervention)

Interventions

The nerve involved in the operation of Hickman catheter, chemoport, and Perm cath is the supraclavicular nerve. Therefore, it is judged that if only this nerve is selectively blocked, pain control can be effectively performed with a small amount of local anesthetic, and relatively few side effects occur.

Selective supraclavicular nerve block

No intervention

Eligibility Criteria

Age3 Years - 18 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Pediatric patients receiving Hickman catheter, chemoport, or Perm cath implantation (3 years ≤, \<18 years)
  • One or more of the parents (or guardians), after hearing and understanding a sufficient explanation about this clinical trial, decides to participate voluntarily and agrees in writing to abide by the precautions
  • In the case of a study subject aged seven years or older, a person who voluntarily decides to participate in this clinical trial and agrees in writing to abide by the precautions after hearing and understanding a sufficient explanation about this clinical trial

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients who undergo surgery other than the surgery.
  • Patients with diseases whose sensitivity to pain is different from that of the general public
  • Unstable vital signs (heart rate, blood pressure)
  • General contraindications of Ropivacaine
  • Patients with a history of allergy to opioids
  • Severe renal dysfunction (Creatinine\> 3.0 mg/dl)
  • Severe liver dysfunction (aspartate transaminase \> 120 unit/L, alanine aminotransferase \> 120 unit/L)
  • Peripheral nervous system abnormalities
  • At risk of malignant hyperthermia
  • Other cases that the researcher judges to be inappropriate
