Effect of Ultrasound-Guided Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plane Block on Opioid Consumption After Reduction Mammaplasty: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial

Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Other, Procedure
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether an ultrasound-guided serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block (SPSIP block) can lower the need for opioid pain medicine after breast reduction surgery. The main question it aims to answer is: Does adding an SPSIP block to standard anesthesia and pain treatment lower opioid use during the first 24 hours after surgery? Researchers will compare participants who receive standard anesthesia and pain treatment with participants who receive standard anesthesia and pain treatment plus an SPSIP block. Participants will: * Have planned bilateral breast reduction surgery under general anesthesia * Be randomly assigned to the SPSIP block group or the control group * Receive standard local anesthetic infiltration during surgery and standard pain treatment after surgery * Have their pain score and pain medicine use recorded during the first 24 hours after surgery * Be followed for safety and complications for 30 days after surgery

Participants
Target number of participants: 80
Treatments
Experimental: SPSIP Block Group
Participants in this arm will receive bilateral ultrasound-guided serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block after induction of general anesthesia and before surgical local infiltration and skin incision. They will also receive standard general anesthesia, standardized surgical local anesthetic infiltration, and standard postoperative multimodal pain treatment.
Active_comparator: Control Group
Participants in this arm will receive standard general anesthesia, standardized surgical local anesthetic infiltration, and standard postoperative multimodal pain treatment. They will not receive serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block.
