Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the optimized efficacy of single-injection thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) with multiple adjuvant drugs combined with general anesthesia for modified radical mastectomy (MRM) for breast cancer.Methods:Sixty American Society of Anesthesiologists physical statusⅠ or Ⅱ patients, aged 20-60 yr, with body mass index<30 kg/m 2, scheduled for elective primary modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer under general anesthesia, were divided into 2 groups ( n=30 each) using a random number table method: single-injection TPVB with multiple adjuvants group (group PV-SI) and continuous infusion via TPVB group (group PV-CI). In group PV-SI, single-injection TPVB was performed with 0.25% ropivacaine 25 ml, dexamethasone 3 mg, buprenorphine 120 μg, and adrenaline 2.5 μg/ml, and general anesthesia was performed after induction of anesthesia.In group PV-CI, the mixture of 0.25% ropivacaine 25 ml and epinephrine 2.5 μg/ml was injected after induction of anesthesia, and then 0.125% ropivacaine 8 ml/h was continuously infused via TPVB until 48 h after operation.At the end of operation, a patient-controlled intravenous analgesic pump was connected and programmed to deliver a bolus dose of morphine 2 mg with a lockout interval of 10 min and no loading dose and background infusion.The duration of postoperative analgesia, total consumption of morphine within 48 h after operation, occurrence of nausea and vomiting, and patient′s recommendation and satisfaction were recorded. Results:There was no significant difference in the duration of postoperative analgesia, total consumption of morphine within 48 h after operation, incidence of nausea and vomiting, and rates of patient′s recommendation and satisfaction between PV-SI group and PV-CI group ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Single-injection TPVB with multiple adjuvants combined with general anesthesia can be used as an optimized strategy to improve the postoperative analgesia in the patients undergoing MRM for breast cancer.
