block (SAPB) alone (30 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine) or plus Magnesium (150 mg of magnesium sulfate) or plus Magnesium + Buprenorphine (300 mcg) as adjuvants can improve post-operative pain in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery.', 'detailedDescription': 'Many thoracic surgeons have switched from open thoracotomy to video-assisted thoracoscopy (VATS), when possible, in efforts to decrease length of hospital stays, decrease analgesic requirements, and decrease postoperative pain.\n\nThe serratus anterior plane block (SAPB) has been used effectively for the management of pain in the context of rib fractures, rib contusions, thoracoscopic surgery, thoracotomy, breast surgery, and post-mastectomy pain syndrome. It has been shown to have similar efficacy to thoracic epidurals in open thoracotomy.\n\nThe serratus anterior muscle originates from the anterior aspect of ribs 1 through 7-10 and inserts on the medial border of the scapula. It consists of 7 to 10 serrated tendinous projections that originate on each rib and is innervated by the long thoracic nerve. Deep and superficial potential spaces bound the serratus anterior. At the level of the fifth rib, the superficial plane forms from the anterior aspect of the serratus anterior and the posterior aspect of the latissimus dorsi muscle. The deep plane forms from the posterior aspect of the serratus anterior and the external intercostal muscles and ribs. Injecting in either plane will achieve analgesia to the anterolateral chest wall with reportedly similar efficacy and an equivalent area of cutaneous sensory loss.\n\nThe SAPB targets the lateral cutaneous branches of the thoracic intercostal nerves, which arise from the anterior rami of the thoracic spinal nerves and run in a neurovascular bundle immediately inferior to each rib. At the midaxillary line, the lateral cutaneous branches of the thoracic intercostal nerve traverse through the internal intercostal, external intercostal, and serratus anterior muscles innervating the musculature of the lateral thorax. These branches of the intercostal nerves, therefore, travel through the two potential spaces described above. Local anesthetic inserted into these planes will spread throughout the lateral chest wall, resulting in paresthesia of the T2 through T9 dermatomes of the anterolateral thorax.\n\nRebound pain is possible after serratus anterior block because analgesia provided by bupivacaine typically lasts around six hours. Local anesthetic systemic toxicity is a potential complication of regional anesthesia as well. For this reason, dilute anesthetic is used, and a maximum dose of 2 mg/kg of bupivacaine is the recommendation. Pneumothorax is a potential complication but would entail catastrophic error because the fascial planes targeted in this block are superficial to the ribs, and the pleural line can be visualized clearly on ultrasound. If a pneumothorax is suspected, ultrasound can help to confirm lung sliding immediately after the procedure. Nerve injury is unlikely given the needle is not steered directly at nerves, but instead towards the plane through which the nerves run.\n\nThe duration of traditional amide-based and ester-based regional anesthesia is normally limited to only a few hours as mentioned above. Techniques including continuous catheter placement or serial injections can be used to enhance the duration and effect of regional anesthesia for postoperative pain control. But these approaches can increase the risk of infection, toxicity, and cost. Therefore, alternative methods of extending the clinical duration of nerve blocks have been a topic of significant interest.\n\nAt SJMO patients who undergo a thoracoscopic procedures currently receive parenteral opioids or thoracic epidurals for management of pain.\n\nThe purpose of this study is to determine whether SAPB with bupivacaine and adjuvants can provide superior pain management (decrease pain scores) and decrease opioid consumption, without increasing nausea/vomiting, compared to patients receiving SAPB with bupivacaine alone in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopy.\n\nWe will be assessing whether the addition of magnesium and buprenorphine to bupivacaine in SAPB will decrease visual analog scale (VAS) pain scores, reduce post-operative total opioid consumption (oral morphine equivalents), and decrease post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV).'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '100 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n\\- Patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopy\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patients with significant genetic or acquired clotting/bleeding disorders (hemophilia, DIC, etc.)\n* Patients with significant platelet dysfunction\n* Infection at site for regional anesthesia\n* Allergy to local anesthetics\n* Sepsis'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT05090761', 'briefTitle': 'Serratus Anterior Plane Block With and Without Adjuvants in Video-assisted Thoracoscopy', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Wayne State University'}, 'officialTitle': 'Is Serratus Anterior Plane Block (SAPB) With Adjuvant Medications Better at Managing Post-operative Pain Than Serratus Anterior Plane Block With Bupivacaine Alone in Patients Undergoing Video-assisted Thoracoscopy?', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'SAPB in thoracoscopy'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'ACTIVE_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'SAPB', 'description': '40 Patients - Patients will receive 30 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine injected below the serratus anterior muscle in the caudal direction using ultrasound guidance.', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: Bupivacaine 0.25% Injectable Solution']}, {'type': 'ACTIVE_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'SAPB with Mg', 'description': '40 Patients - Patients will receive 30 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine with 150 mg of Mg injected below the serratus anterior muscle in the caudal direction using ultrasound guidance.', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: Bupivacaine 0.25% Injectable Solution, Magnesium Sulfate 150 mg']}, {'type': 'ACTIVE_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'SAPB with Mg and Buprenorphine', 'description': '40 Patients - Patients will receive 30 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine with 150 mg of Mg and 300 mcg of buprenorphine injected below the serratus anterior muscle in the caudal direction using ultrasound guidance.', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: Bupivacaine 0.25% Injectable Solution, Magnesium Sulfate 150 mg, Buprenorphine 300 mcg']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Bupivacaine 0.25% Injectable Solution', 'type': 'DRUG', 'description': 'Injection of Bupivacaine 0.25% Injectable Solution for SAPB', 'armGroupLabels': ['SAPB']}, {'name': 'Bupivacaine 0.25% Injectable Solution, Magnesium Sulfate 150 mg', 'type': 'DRUG', 'description': 'Injection of Bupivacaine 0.25% Injectable Solution for SAPB Addition of 150 mg of Magnesium Sulfate as adjuvant', 'armGroupLabels': ['SAPB with Mg']}, {'name': 'Bupivacaine 0.25% Injectable Solution, Magnesium Sulfate 150 mg, Buprenorphine 300 mcg', 'type': 'DRUG', 'description': 'Injection of Bupivacaine 0.25% Injectable Solution for SAPB Addition of 150 mg of Magnesium Sulfate and 300mcg Buprenorphine as adjuvants', 'armGroupLabels': ['SAPB with Mg and Buprenorphine']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '48341', 'city': 'Pontiac', 'state': 'Michigan', 'status': 'RECRUITING', 'country': 'United States', 'contacts': [{'name': 'Lena Anderson', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'phone': '248-858-6068'}], 'facility': 'St. Joseph Mercy Oakland Hospital', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 42.63892, 'lon': -83.29105}}], 'centralContacts': [{'name': 'Sandeep Krishnan, M.D.', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'sakrishna@med.wayne.edu', 'phone': '(248) 858-6068'}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'NO'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Wayne State University', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'Associate Professor of Anesthesiology', 'investigatorFullName': 'Sandeep Krishnan', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Wayne State University'}}}}
