Abstract
In this double-blinded, randomized controlled trial, sixty patients undergoing elective uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) lobectomy were randomly assigned to receive thoracoscopic intercostal nerve block (ICNB, n = 30) or ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block (ESPB, n = 30).
No block-related adverse events occurred. The ICNB group showed significantly lower resting and coughing visual analog scale scores, than the ESPB group, 4 (4.0 and 5.0 versus 5.0 and 6.0, p = 0.006 and 0.012) and 8 (3.0 and 4.0 versus 5.0 and 6.0, p = 0.003 and 0.017) hours postoperatively. The ESPB group consumed morphine significantly earlier (1.5 versus 10 h, p = 0.002), and had a higher 24-h cumulative consumption (11 versus 7 mg, p = 0.103). No differences were observed in postoperative nausea, vomiting, complications, drainage duration, or hospital stay.
ICNB demonstrated superior early analgesic efficacy, whereas ICNB and ESPB depicted safety and facilitated rapid recovery following uniportal VATS lobectomy.
在这项双盲、随机对照试验中,60例接受选择性单门静脉胸腔镜手术(VATS)肺叶切除术的患者被随机分配接受胸腔镜肋间神经阻滞(ICNB, n = 30)或超声引导直立者脊柱平面阻滞(ESPB, n = 30)。未发生阻滞相关不良事件。ICNB组术后4小时(4.0和5.0比5.0和6.0,p = 0.006和0.012)和8小时(3.0和4.0比5.0和6.0,p = 0.003和0.017)的静息和咳嗽视觉模拟评分明显低于ESPB组。ESPB组吗啡消耗明显早于对照组(1.5 mg vs .10 mg, p = 0.002),且24小时累计吗啡消耗较高(11 mg vs . 7 mg, p = 0.103)。术后恶心、呕吐、并发症、引流时间或住院时间均无差异。ICNB表现出优越的早期镇痛效果,而ICNB和ESPB表现出安全性,并促进单门静脉ats肺叶切除术后的快速恢复。
