Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Premedication will be given, after complete fasting hours after applying standard monitors (noninvasive blood pressure, pulse oximetery, ECG, temperature and capnography), an intravenous cannula will be placed and secured.

Ultrasound guided Erector spinae plane (ESP) block will be given with patient in sitting position depending on surgical site (left or right) ESP block will be given using high frequency linear u/s transducer, the probe is placed in longitudinal orientation lateral to thoracic fifth spinous process, then Trapezius muscle, Rhomboidus major muscle, and erector spinae muscle, are identified from surface, we deposite20 ml of 0.25% levobupivacaine into interfacial plane below erector spinae muscle.

General anesthesia will be induced with fentanyl l μg /kg, propofol 2mg /kg, muscle relaxant (atracurium 0.5 mg/kg) inhalational anesthesia (isoflurane or sevoflurane) No other narcotic, analgesic or sedative will be administrated during operative period.

Standard monitor (mean arterial blood pressure, heart rate , oxygen saturation & end-tidal Co2) will observed and recorded every 30 min till end of surgery

Post-operative:

The patient will be transferred to the post anesthesia care unit (PACU) and will be monitored for:

  1. Vital signs (heart rate, noninvasive blood pressure, and oxygen saturation).
  2. RASS score (Richmond Agitation & Sedation scale) with its +4:-5 score range will be used to assess sedation post-operative, considered sedation ≥-2 table (1)
  3. Numerical Rating Score (NRS) pain score with its 0-10 score range will be used to assess pain immediately post-operative and then at 2, 4, 6, 8, 12,18and 24hour in the post-operative period figure (1). (4)Time and amount to request analgesia (PCA patient controlled analgesia morphine (demand dose 1-2 mg, lock out 6-10 min)) at NRS≥3. (5) Side effect of studied drugs as (hypotension, sedation , respiration depression and vomiting ) and complication of the block for 24h post- operative.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.
