Clinical Trial Summary

The intertransverse process block (ITPB) is an alternatives technique of regional anesthesia for thoracic surgery. However, the precise technique of ITPB remains developing. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of ITPB injections which are single and triple injection in adult-patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. The investigators hypothesize that cutaneous sensory block and perioperative pain outcomes including pain intensity and opioids consumption in patients who received triple injections of ITPB are better than that of single injection.


Clinical Trial Description

Objectives: evaluate the efficacy of single and triple injections of ultrasound-guided ITPB in adult patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery for lobectomy Setting: Single center tertiary teaching hospital Participants: adult-patients who undergoing scheduled video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery for lobectomy. Intervention: The patient will divide to 2 groups of intervention: single injection of ITPB (S-group) and triple injection of ITPB (T-group). The ITPB will be perform before routine general anesthesia. The primary outcomes is to compare the distribution of cutaneous block after single and triple injections of ultrasound-guided ITPB in adult patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery for lobectomy. The distribution of cutaneous block will be evaluate at PACU. ;
