Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Brief Summary   44 ASA 1&2 patients posted for modified radical mastectomy surgeries are randomly divided into two groups - group A patients receive ultrasound guided Serratus Anterior Plane block under General anaesthesia with 20 ml of 0.25%ropivacaine  with 8mg Dexamethasone and group B patients receive general anaesthesia without any block. Postoperatively all patients will be administered PCA morphine pump  with basal infusion rate of 0.1mg/hr and bolus of 1mg with lockout interval of 10min. The time to request for first dose of analgesia and the total morphine consumed in 24hours are noted and compared. The side effects, if any are also observed. The hypothesis of the study is by performing Serratus Anterior Plane block, the duration of postoperative analgesia is prolonged and morphine consumption in the postoperative period is decreased.
