Analgesic Efficacy of Pectoral Nerve Block and Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plane Block in Breast Cancer Surgery; Randomized Controlled Trial
This randomized clinical trial aims to evaluate and compare the analgesic efficacy of the Pectoral Nerve Block (PECS II) and the Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plane (SPSIP) Block in patients undergoing breast cancer surgery. The primary outcome is total opioid consumption in the first 24 hours. Secondary outcomes include pain scores (VAS), block performance time, number of needle passes, postoperative recovery quality (QoR-15), time to first analgesic request, and complications (hematoma, pneumothorax, local anesthetic toxicity, vascular puncture, infection).
