Official title

Analgesic Efficacy of Adding Dexmedetomidine VS Magnesium Sulphate as Adjuvants With Bupivacaine in Ultrasound-guided Erector Spinae Plane Block for Post Thoracotomy Pain

Overview

Postoperative pain management is considered an integral part of perioperative care in patients undergoing thoracotomy. In order to reduce these complications, multiple regional techniques have been developed for thoracotomy including Intercostal nerve block, Erectospinae plane block and serratus block. Multiple adjuvants have been used in regional analgesia including adrenaline,clonidine,magnesium sulphate,dexmedatomidine and opoids.

Interventions

  • Drug Bupivacaine
    Bupivacaine 0.25%
  • Drug Bupivacaine + Magnesium
    Bupivacaine 0.25% + Magnesium
  • Drug Bupivacaine + Dexmedetomidine
    Bupivacaine 0.25% + Dexmedetomidine

Primary outcome measures

  • Total postoperative morphine consumption [Time frame: First 24 hours postoperatively]
Secondary outcome measures (1)
  • Time to first postoperative rescue analgesia. [Time frame: First 24 hours postoperatively]
