Brief Summary: Thoracotomy is considered the most painful surgical procedure. Ultrasound-guided serratus anterior plane block (SAPB) is a relatively new truncal block method treating thoracotomy pain. In this study, investigators aim to ascertain the efficacy of SAPB in thoracotomy.
Detailed Description: Thoracotomy is considered the most painful surgical procedure, even with thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA) as a golden standard for acute post-thoracotomy pain. Ultrasound-guided serratus anterior plane block (SAPB) is a relatively new truncal block method treating thoracotomy pain, yet more evidence is needed to ascertain its efficacy.

This is a prospective study carried out in a tertiary hospital. Patients scheduled for thoracotomy are randomized into two groups: Group M (intravenous patient-controlled-analgesia morphine) and Group S (intravenous patient-controlled analgesia morphine and SAPB). Morphine consumption, VAS pain score and Prince-Henry pain score are recorded for 72 hours respectively at PACU, 2hr, 6hr, 12hr, 24hr, 48hr and 72hr, with heart rate, systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, mean arterial pressure and SpO2. Moreover, the profile of opioids-related side effects and length of hospital stay are documented. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of SAPB. The secondary objective is to compare the opioids-related side effects (including nausea, vomiting and pruritus), hemodynamic parameters and the length of hospital stay.
