The Effect of Ultrasound-Guided Erector Spinae Plane Block Combined with Dexmedetomidine on Postoperative Analgesia in Patients Undergoing Modified Radical Mastectomy: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Abstract
One of the most common malignancies in women worldwide is breast cancer. Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) can reduce pain after modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer. The duration of nerve block analgesia is limited if local anesthetic agents are used alone. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of dexmedetomidine on postoperative analgesia during a single injection of local anesthetics.
