Brief Summary
|
The study would be done upon a total of 90 patients after approval of hospital ethics committee and obtaining written informed consent from all the patients.Patients would be randomly assigned to one of the three groups with a total of 30 patients in each group:-
Group B would receive Pec 1 and Pec 2 block with 30 ml 0.25% bupivacaine alone. Group Bd would receive Pec 1 and Pec 2 block with 30 ml 0.25% bupivacaine with dexmedetomidine 0.5 microgram per kilogram body weight. Group BD would receive Pec 1 and Pec 2 block with 30 ml 0.25% bupivacaine with dexmedetomidine 1.0 microgram per kilogram body weight.
On arrival in the operating room, baseline vitals of the patient would be recorded.General anaesthesia would be induced with injection of fentanyl 1 microgram per kg i.v. followed by propofol 1.5-2.0 mg/kg i.v. until loss of verbal response.Vecuronium 0.1 mg/kg i.v. would be used to facilitate tracheal intubation.Anaesthesia would be maintained with nitrous oxide 60% in oxygen and isoflurane 1.0%.
One of the investigators would prepare 30 ml of study drug with either of the aforementioned adjuvants according to the assigned group.The patient would receive ultrasound guided Pec 1 and Pec 2 blocks by an experienced anaesthesiologist who would be blinded to the contents of the drug given.
The primary outcomes would be assessed as follows:- 1.Quality of postoperative analgesia which would be assessed using VAS score. 2.Duration of analgesia (time to first rescue analgesia after administration of block). 3.Intraoperative hemodynamic parameters (mean blood pressure and heart rate). 4.Total analgesic consumption intraoperatively and in first 24 hours after surgery.
The secondary outcomes would be presence of any adverse effects like hypotension,nausea,vomiting,respiratory depression, and sedation score.
Data collected from 90 patients (30 in each study group) would be analysed to arrive at the results.
