Summary
The aim of the study is to assess the effect of adding dexmedetomidine to bupivacaine in US guided erector spinae plane block in modified radical mastectomy surgeries , Using visual analogue score and post-operative narcotics consumption.
Peripheral nerve blocks are effective adjuvant options for pain management in breast surgeries. The use of Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) has been proven to be very effective in controlling pain and minimizing narcotic consumption after modified radical mastectomy surgeries.
Many adjuvants to local anaesthetics were used to improve the duration and intensity of the peripheral nerve block.
