Brief summary

In this study, it will aimed to evaluate the effect of magnesium sulfate and ketamine HCl added to local anesthetic on postoperative pain management in the ultrasound-guided erector spina plane (ESP) block in patients will undergo video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery.

Detailed description

Patients who will undergo lung resection with elective video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery will be included in the study. After routine monitoring, general anesthesia induction, and intubation with a double-lumen tube, patients who are placed in a lateral position will receive an ESP block at the T5 level, accompanied by ultrasonography, for postoperative analgesia. For this purpose; Group I (control group) 0.5% bupivacaine 20 ml, Group II 0.5% bupivacaine 20 ml+150 mg MgSO4, Group III 0% ,5 bupivacaine 20 ml+2 mg/kg ketamine HCl will be administered. In all groups, the total volume will completed to 25 ml with 0.9% NaCl. After surgery, hemodynamic values (heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure), oxygen saturation, VAS scores (at rest and effort), Ramsey sedation score, patients satisfaction scores, PCA morphine consumption, additional analgesic requirements, and side effects will be recorded.

Interventions

DRUGBupivacain

Bupivacaine is a local anesthetic agent commonly used in ESP block.

DRUGMagnesium sulfate

Magnesium is an adjuvant agent that can be added to the local anesthetic agent to increase analgesic effectiveness..

DRUGKetamine Hydrochloride

Ketamine Hydrochloride is an also adjuvant agent that can be added to the local anesthetic to increase analgesic effectiveness.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
pain scoresChange from baseline pain scores at 24 hourspostoperative pain scores will recorded used Visual Analog Scale (VAS, 0= no pain, 10=worst pain)
morphine consumptionChange from baseline morphine consumption at 24 hoursAt the end of the surgery, patients will allowed to use the patient controlled analgesia (PCA) device. The PCA will deliver bolus doses of morphine (0,02 mg/kg) every 10 minutes without a background infusion.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
side effectspostoperative 24 hoursAll of patients will visited in the thoracic surgery ward after surgery and side effects (if occured) will recorded.
