Continuous paravertebral block for postoperative pain compared to general anaesthesia and wound infiltration for major oncological breast surgery
We hypothesized that improved acute postoperative pain relief will be achieved using general anaesthesia (GA) either in combination with continuous thoracic paravertebral block (GA-cPVB) or single shot (GA-sPVB) as compared to GA supplemented by local wound infiltration (GA-LWI) after unilateral major breast cancer surgery. A randomised controlled trial was conducted in 46 adult women in a day-...

متن کاملThoracic paravertebral block.
THORACIC paravertebral block (TPVB) is the technique of injecting local anesthetic adjacent to the thoracic vertebra close to where the spinal nerves emerge from the intervertebral foramina. This results in ipsilateral somatic and sympathetic nerve blockade in multiple contiguous thoracic dermatomes above and below the site of injection. It is effective in treating acute and chronic pain of uni...
متن کاملThoracic paravertebral block versus pectoral nerve block for analgesia after breast surgery
Paravertebral block; Pectoral nerve block; Breast surgery Abstract Background: Pectoral nerve block (Pecs) is a novel interfascial plane block which can provide analgesia after breast surgery while paravertebral block (PVB) is widely used for this purpose. We evaluated the difference between the two techniques in regard to morphine consumption and analgesic efficacy after modified radical maste...
