RandomizedParallel-groupSingle-blindOther
Summary
Elderly patients are usually presented with higher risk for developing cardiopulmonary complications after general anesthesia (GA). Bilateral paravertebral block (PVB) has been associated with favorable outcomes in patients undergoing ventral hernia repair. Hence, elderly patients undergoing major abdominal surgery may benefit from PVB anesthetic technique.
