Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to Investigate the analgesic efficacy of adding ketamine compared to neostigmine to local anesthetic in Ultrasound guided Serratus anterior plane block for patients undergoing Modified Radical Mastectomy.


Clinical Trial Description

Breast cancer is the most common malignancy among females with incidence of 18,660 patients each year in Egypt. Modified Radical Mastectomy is considered the main surgical management for breast cancer accounting for 31% of all breast surgery cases. Ultrasound guided Serratus anterior plane block provides analgesia for breast and lateral thoracic wall surgeries by blocking nerves that are located in a compartment between the serratus anterior and the latissimus dorsi muscles ( the intercostobrachial nerve, lateral cutaneous branches of the intercostal nerves (T3-T9), long thoracic nerve and thoracodorsal nerve). A previous study demonstrated the analgesic efficacy of ketamine in patients undergoing modified pectoral nerve block in breast cancer surgery as evidenced by prolonged time to first rescue analgesia and reduced total opioid consumption. Neostigmine has been used as an additive to local anesthetics to prolong the analgesic effect. Although there is good evidence for a spinal action of neostigmine, its analgesic efficacy as an adjuvant to local anesthetic is still unclear. The aim of this study is to Investigate the analgesic efficacy of adding ketamine compared to neostigmine to local anesthetic in Ultrasound guided Serratus anterior plane block for patients undergoing Modified Radical Mastectomy. ;
