Brief Summary:
During VATS Video assisted thoracic surgery small incisions are made in the patients chest through which a camera and instruments are inserted to allow a lung operation to be performed Often patients experience a substantial amount of pain and difficult recovery after this type of operation Anaesthesiologists sometimes use Regional Anaesthesia to minimise the pain and help patient recovery after the operation This involves injecting local anaesthesia into the nerves around the chest wall to effectively numb that part of the chest There is a variety of different locations on the chest wall where the local anaesthetic can be deposited and no study has measured whether one technique is better than the other in terms of improving patients recovery experience Our study compares two new techniques for Regional Anaesthesia after this type of surgery Participants will be randomly assigned like tossing a coin to receive either a SAP Serratus Anterior Plane or ESP Erector Spinae Plane Block Both techniques are described within last five years but have never been compared for chest surgery
Detailed Description:
The Serratus Anterior Plane SAP Block has been claimed to be a safer technically less demanding alternative to paravertebral block and thoracic epidural in the management of post operative VATS associated pain Recently another new block the Erector Spinae Block ESP Block has been described for use in thoracic wall surgery It has also been claimed to be easier to perform than these more traditional methods of regional anaesthesia No study to date has compared ESP to SAP blocks in terms of efficacy of post operative analgesia after VATS surgery Furthermore patient-centres outcome studies now demand that researchers evaluate more than acute pain in the early postoperative period A 15-parameter Quality of Recovery score QoR-15 has been recommended as the optimum tool to evaluate overall patient-centres measures of recovery after surgery including pain This study will test the hypothesis that patients receiving ESP Block have higher QoR-15 scores and better post operative analgesia in comparison with patients receiving SAP Block after VATS surgery
