Brief Summary

This randomized, double-blind trial included 60 female patients undergoing modified radical mastectomy. The study carried out at National Cancer Institute, cairo university after approval of the local ethical committee. The study aiming to compare the analgesic efficiency of adding dexamethasone or ketamine plus dexamethasone to bupivacaine in ultrasound-guided serratus anterior plane block (SAPB) performed with modified radical mastectomy surgery.

Study Arms (2)

Group A

EXPERIMENTAL

Serratus anterior plane block using 30ml of (bupivacaine 0 .25 % and dexamethasone 4 mg)

Procedure: Serratus anterior plane block for MRM

Group B

EXPERIMENTAL

Serratus anterior plane block using 30ml of (bupivacaine 0.25% and dexamethasone 4mg with ketamine 50 mg).

Procedure: Serratus anterior plane block for MRM

Interventions

They will randomly assigned to two groups of 30 patients each, at 1:1 allocation ratio using computer-generated random numbers concealed in sealed opaque envelopes. Group (A): Patients will receive ultrasound-guided serratus anterior block using 30ml of (bupivacaine 0 .25 % and dexamethasone 4 mg). Group (B): Patients will receive ultrasound-guided serratus anterior block using 30ml of (bupivacaine 0.25% and dexamethasone 4mg with ketamine 50 mg). All the medications were prepared by an anesthesiologist not participating in the study.
