Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary outcomes: 1 - the postoperative analgesic efficacy of the combined fascial plane block and thoracic epidural analgesia as assessed by the visual analogue Scale ( VAS ) at 2 hours Postoperatively. 2 - intraoperative opioid need (fentanyl) as assessed by changes in heart rate & mean arterial blood pressure ( increasing by 20 % of basally recorded numbers)in absence of other causes.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The secondary outcomes: 1. the first time patient rescue analgesia at the first 24 hours postoperatively. 2. visual analogue scale (VAS) at (2, 6,12, 24 hours post-operatively) . 3. total opioid consumption at the first 24 hours post-operatively. 4. Post-operative nausea and vomiting.
