Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to compare the incentive spirometry volume and analgesic efficacy of ultrasound guided continuous Retrolaminar block and continuous Erector spinae plain block in patients with multiple rib fractures.


Description:

Thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA) and thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) are strongly recommended techniques for managing thoracic neuropathic pain However, they can be technically challenging to perform and are associated with up to 15% failure rate in Thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA)and potential risk of pneumothorax in thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB).Newer approaches have been the focus of many studies in recent years; these approaches include retrolaminar block and erector spinae plane block. Retrolaminar block (RLB) is a new thoracic truncal block for controlling somatic pain in both the thoracic and abdominal walls. The Erector Spinae plane block (ESPB) has been used successfully to manage severe neuropathic pain arising from ribs .The basis to use ESPB is its likely site of action which is the dorsal and ventral rami of the thoracic spinal nerves.

Study Design


Intervention

Drug:
Retrolaminar block group
Under complete aseptic precautions and sterilization and in sitting position, A high-frequency linear ultrasound probe (6-11 MHz) was placed into a longitudinal orientation in the paraspinous line 1 cm from the midline. Lamina appeared as a continuous line interrupted by the intra laminar spaces. local infiltration of needle insertion site with 3ml of 2.0 % lidocaine was done Then, an 18-gauge Tuohy needle was inserted in plane 1 cm lateral to the spinous process using ultrasound imaging and advanced caudally or cranially until it contacts the lamina.
Erector spinae plane block group.
Under complete aseptic precautions and sterilization and in sitting position, A high-frequency ultrasound transducer was placed in a longitudinal orientation 3 cm lateral to the midline midway between the uppermost and the lowest fractured rib to identify counting of ribs using ultrasound three muscles were identified as superficial to the hyperechoic transverse process shadow as follows: trapezius, rhomboid major, and erector spinae. However, when the rhomboid major muscle disappears this indicates that we are at the level of the seventh thoracic vertebra. local infiltration of needle insertion site with 3ml of 2.0 % lidocaine was done. Then, an 18-gauge Tuohy needle was inserted in cranial-caudal direction towards transverse process (TP) in-plane to the US transducer until needle touched the TP crossing all the muscles

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Maximum inspired volume Maximum inspired volume will be measure by incentive spirometry which indicate less pain.
Inspiratory capacity (IC) measured by Incentive Spirometry before the block, 30 minutes, 60 minutes after the blocks and then every six hours for subsequent 4 days.
4 days after intervention.
Secondary Daily and total rescue analgesics consumption. Need for rescue analgesia and the total consumption of morphine in the form of incremental doses (0.05mg /kg) if Visual Analogue Score (VAS) =4 Pain score will be measured by Visual Analogue Score (VAS) from 0 to 10. Where 0: no pain, 10: the worst pain 24 hours after intervention.
Secondary Intensive care length of stay. Time from admission till Intensive care discharge 28 days after intervention
Secondary Hospital length of stay. Time from admission till Hospital discharge 28 days after intervention
Secondary pH pH will be measure before the block ,6 hours after the block and then daily for subsequent 4 days. 4 days after intervention.
Secondary PaO2 PaO2 will be measure before the block ,6 hours after the block and then daily for subsequent 4 days. 4 days after intervention.
Secondary PaCo2 PaCo2 will be measure before the block ,6 hours after the block and then daily for subsequent 4 days. 4 days after intervention.
Secondary FiO2 FiO2 will be measure before the block ,6 hours after the block and then daily for subsequent 4 days. 4 days after intervention.
Secondary Respiratory rate Respiratory rate will be measure before the block ,6 hours after the block and then daily for subsequent 4 days. 4 days after intervention.
Secondary Adverse effects and complications. Adverse effects and complications such as hypotension, complications related to catheter insertion, pneumothorax, local anesthetic toxicity, and respiratory depression 4 days after intervention.
