About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Different Doses of Dexmetomedine as an Adjuvant to Bupivacaine in Ultrasound Guided PECS Block in Patients Undergoing Modified Radical Mastectomy

Regional anesthesia is an essential component of anesthesia and analgesia. It has many advantages, it decreases pain post operatively, improves patient outcome and allow early recovery and ambulation Post-operative pain following breast surgery results from injured muscles and nerves, management of acute post operative pain is a consistent factor for better outcome and patient satisfaction

Read the detailed description

All patients will be monitored by standard intraoperative monitoring that includes continuous electrocardiography (ECG), capnography, pulse oximetry, and non invasive blood pressure.

Induction of general anesthesia will be done by propofol 1.5-2 mg/kg and fentanyl 3µg/kg.

Tracheal intubation will be facilitated by administration of rocuronium 0.8 mg/kg. Anesthesia will be maintained with isoflurane 1MAC (Pecs block):the block will be performed with the patients in the supine position.The infraclavicular and axillary regions will be cleaned with antiseptic solution. the in plane technique will be used from proximal and medial to distal and lateral in an oblique manner at dermatome level T2 and T3.The puncture site was infiltrated with 2%lidocaine and once the structures is identified with Ultrasound

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

postoperative pain (time frame: 48 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
