Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Paravertebral Block  Ultrasound guided lateral intercostal approach to paravertebral block 
Intervention  Ultrasound guided modified PECs-2 Block  ∞ The study is first of its kind comparing two novel ultrasound guided blocks utilized in conservative breast surgery. a. Pre Anesthetic Evaluation, Preoperative informed consent obtained, Patient Education regarding pain score and satisfaction rating introduced. b. Baseline monitoring Pre-medication with Inj. Glycopyrrolate (0.2mg i.v.), Inj. Fentanyl (2 microgram/kg) c. Induction with propofol (1.5-2.5mg/kg i.v.) followed by Muscle relaxant with Inj. Atracurium (0.5-mg/kg i.v.) Maintenance with oxygen, nitrous oxide, inhalational anesthetic (sevoflurane)in 0.8 -1.2 MAC range and maintenance opioid fentanyl 1microgram/kg/hr. d. Immediately after securing airway either with supraglottic airway device or with endotracheal tube, patient positioned either in supine position (for ultrasound guided pectoral block) or lateral position (for ultrasound guided intercostal paravertebral block) and receive 20ml of 0.25% bupivacaine by an an in-plane needle approach. e. Postoperative pain scores evaluated immediate postoperatively (in PACU) followed by 2,6,12 and 24 hours. f. Overall patient satisfaction assessment done.

Brief Summary   The study targets patients of tertiary care hospital who will undergo conservative breast surgery who undergo performance of either ultrasound guided Pectoral block or ultrasound guided Intercostal approach to Paravertebral block. The goal of the study is to address the postoperative pain score and need for rescue analgesia after conservative breast surgery and comparison of novel ultrasound guided blocks. Patient satisfaction also will be taken into account postoperatively.
