Comparison of Analgesic Efficacy in Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery Patients

Summary

The 52 patients included in the study were divided into two groups as ESPB (n=26) and SPSIPB (n=26). Before the operation, 0.25% bupivacaine 30 ml was administered to both groups. After admission to the operating room, all patients underwent standard anaesthesia procedures. Morphine 0.05 mg/kg i.v. and parol 1 g i.v. were administered 30 min before the end of the operation. Post operatively the patient was followed up with controlled analgesia. Demographic data, ASA scores, body mass indexes, peri-operative haemodynamic values, remifentanil consumption and duration of surgery were recorded. Post-operative first 24 hours NRS scores, morphine consumption, number of nausea and vomiting episodes were recorded.
