Serratus Anterior Plane Block Versus Erector Spinae Plane Block With Dexmedetomidine Added to Bupivacaine for Ultrasound-Guided Pain Management After Mastectomy
Abstract
This study aimed to compare the serratus plane block versus the erector spinae plane block with dexmedetomidine added to bupivacaine for acute pain management after breast surgeries.
Conditions: Serratus Anterior Plane Block, Erector Spinae Plane Block, Dexmedetomidine, Bupivacaine, Ultrasound, Pain Management, Mastectomy.
Primary outcome: Total dose of pethidine consumption.
Enrollment: 40 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 40 participants or records.
